Clinical and Radiographic Success of Pulpotomy Using Neoputty Mineral Trioxide Aggregate Versus Pulpectomy Using Endoflas In Primary Molars With Irreversible Pulpitis: A Randomized Controlled Trial

April 3, 2025 updated by: Manar Motawie Abdulfattah, Cairo University

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of pulpotomy using Neoputty MTA vital primary molars diagnosed with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.

The main question it aims to answer is:

Will Neoputty MTA pulpotomy have higher clinical and radiographic success in comparison to Endoflas pulpectomy in primary molars with irreversible pulpitis?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
postoperative pain
Time Frame: within 24 hours, after 1 week, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months
postoperative pain will be assessed using the visual analogue scale (VAS) within 24 hours, after 1 week, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. The patients are asked to point to the face that best represents how they are feeling at the follow-up visits.
