The aim of this randomised control trial is to compare the effect of wound lavage using 2.5% Ca(OCl)₂ and 2.5% NaOCl on the outcome of partial pulpotomy in mature permanent mandibular molars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (SIP).Primary objective is to evaluate and compare clinical and radiographic outcome of partial pulpotomy following use of 2.5% Ca(OCl)₂ and 2.5% NaOCl in mature permanent mandibular molars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.secondary objective is to evaluate OHRQoL and pain experience after use of 2.5% Ca(OCl)₂ and 2.5% NaOCl during partial pulpotomy in permanent mandibular molars with clinical signs indicative of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.
patients aged 18-40 years
Mature permanent mandibular molars with extremely deep caries (caries penetrating the entire thickness of the dentine radiographically, without radiopaque zone separating lesion from the pulp) and clinical diagnosis of SIP with PAI score ≤ 2
Periodontally healthy teeth (probing pocket depth ≤3 mm and mobility within normal limit)
Patients having physical status of class 1 or 2 according to ASA classification
Non restorable teeth
No pulp exposure even after complete caries excavation
Necrotic or partially necrotic pulp upon exposure
Presence of sinus tract or soft tissue swelling
