About this trial
AIM:
To compare the efficacy of a Novel calcium silicate doped treated dentin matrix and Mineral Trioxide aggregate as biomaterials for miniature pulpotomy.
OBJECTIVES:
Primary objective:
To evaluate the efficacy of calcium silicate-doped human-treated dentin matrix (CaSi+hTDM) compared to Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) in maintaining pulp vitality using cold testing following Miniature Pulpotomy (MP) in deep and extremely deep carious lesions with reversible pulpitis in 14- to 35-year-old patients reporting to Department of Dentistry, AIIMS Nagpur.
Secondary objectives:
1. To evaluate patient-reported outcomes such as pain, swelling, sinus tract etc. post-operatively. 2. To determine the clinical success rates of both materials by assessing the Periapical index of healing over a 6 months follow-up period.
NULL HYPOTHESIS:
The null hypothesis (H0) is that there is no difference between CaSi+hTDM and MTA in maintaining pulp vitality when used as a Miniature Pulpotomy (MP) biomaterial in carious lesions.
Eligibility criteria
This trial accepts healthy volunteersQualifiers
The clinical diagnosis of reversible pulpitis characterized by mild pain (on Numerical Rating Scale 11) that goes away within a couple of seconds following the removal of the stimulus (113)
Positive response to pulp sensibility tests.
Normal periapical tissues [Periapical index (PAI) score ≤2](114)
The presence of carious lesion with radiolucency penetrating three-fourths (deep caries) or the entire (extremely deep caries) dentin thickness
Disqualifiers
A history of spontaneous unprovoked toothache, pain on percussion, a sinus tract, compromised periodontal status (periodontal pockets > 4mm), excessive mobility, crack
Profuse hemorrhage from exposure site (>5 minutes)
The presence of serous or purulent exudates from the exposure site.
Teeth that have experienced traumatic occlusion, non-carious lesions, developmental defects etc.
