Treatment and study plan

pulp capping with MTA

Procedure

Capping of the pulp tissue with a biocompatible material (MTA)

Primary outcomes

  1. Spontaneous pain

    Time frame: 12 months

    numeric rating scale (presence or abscence of pain) 0 is best result 10 is the worst

  2. Radiolucency of the periapical or furcation area

    Time frame: Follow up for 12 months

    measuring tool is x-ray

Secondary outcomes

  1. Presence or absence of fistula

    Time frame: 12 months

    Visual inspection

  2. Pathological mobility

    Time frame: 12 months

    Graded clinical by applying pressure by end of mirror

  3. Sensitivity on percussion

    Time frame: 12 months

    Methods of tapping on surface in clinical examination

  4. Widening of personal ligament space

    Time frame: 12 months

    Measuring tool is xray

  5. Internal or e ternal resorption

    Time frame: 12 months

    Measuring tool is xray
