Pilot Study,Diode Laser 808 nm Supported Direct Pulp Capping in Permanent Teeth

The purpose of this study was to compare the conventional and diode 808 nm laser-assisted techniques in direct pulp capping in permanent teeth .The present study was based on a series of ten clinical studies with pulp exposure caused by carious lesions.The hypothesis of this paper was laser supported direct pulp cap-ping has proven effectiveness by its capacity to stimulate reparative dentine formation by pulp cells, de-contamination ability of irradiated areas, its ability in the fast and better haemostatic, and pain reduction.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Maintenance of teeth vitality was be measured via thermal tests also by radiographic.

    Time frame: up to 12 months

    Given low success rate of conventional methods, new techniques as laser-assisted need to be developed.The outcome measure of this study was maintenance of teeth vitality with carious exposed via tertiary dentine formation.the tertiary dentine formation during the time of study was assessed radiological. Therefore vitality of the teeth was depend on dentine formation that was measured periodically in 1,6 and 12 months.
