The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of Calcium Hypochlorite versus Saline as root canal irrigants in pulpectomy of primary molars.
The research question it aims to answer is:
In pulpectomy of primary molars will the use of calcium hypochlorite as root canal irrigant result in superior clinical and radiographic success to saline?
Children aged between 4 years and 7 years.
Mandibular primary molars with deep caries lesion involving pulp.
Mandibular primary molars that exhibit symptoms of irreversible pulpitis.
Normal gingival and periodontal condition, with no sensitivity to vestibular palpation, and no pain on percussion test.
Uncooperative children to avoid time waste and attrition bias.
Children with systemic disease as some systemic diseases may have effect on the outcome (Segura-Egea et al., 2023).
Lack of informed consent by the child patient's parent to be approved ethically.
Unable to attend follow-up visits to avoid attrition bias by decreasing number of drop off cases.
