About this trial

This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluation the clinical and radiographic outcomes of hyaluronic acid, TheraCal, and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) when used as pulpotomy agents in primary molars.

The main question it aims to answer is:

In children with restorable mandibular second primary molars requiring pulpotomy, does the use of hyaluronic acid or TheraCal LC, compared to MTA, result in improved clinical and radiographic success rates over a 12-month follow-up period?
