Treatment and study plan

Biodentine

Drug

Biodentine is going to be used as the direct pulp capping material

MTA

Drug

MTA is going to be used as the direct pulp capping material in the second group

Primary outcomes

  1. Success at 3 months following capping

    Time frame: the success of treatment is assessed at three months following the application of the material

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

  2. Success at 6 months following capping

    Time frame: the success of treatment is assessed at six months following the application of the material

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

  3. Success at 9 months following capping

    Time frame: the success of treatment is assessed at 9 months following the application of the material

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

  4. Success at 12 months following capping

    Time frame: the success of treatment is assessed at 12 months following the application of the material

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

  5. Success at 18 months following capping

    Time frame: the success of treatment is assessed at 18 months following the application of the material

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.

  6. Success at 24 months following capping

    Time frame: the success of treatment is assessed at 24 months following the application of the material

    Case is considered successful if clinical and radiographic examinations of tooth are sound 100%.
