Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) is currently considered the gold standard pulpotomy medicament because of its favorable biological properties; however, its high cost, difficult handling characteristics, and prolonged setting time limit its widespread use. Salvadora persica (Miswak), a medicinal plant with documented antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, may provide a cost-effective biological alternative.\n\nThis randomized controlled clinical trial aims to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of Salvadora persica extract mixed with zinc oxide powder versus MTA as pulpotomy agents in mature permanent posterior teeth diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis. A total of 78 patients aged 18-40 years will be randomly allocated into two equal treatment groups. Clinical outcomes, including pain, tenderness to percussion and palpation, swelling, sinus tract formation, and tooth mobility, will be evaluated alongside radiographic outcomes such as periapical\u002Finter-radicular radiolucency and internal resorption. Participants will be followed for six months after treatment.\n\nThe study seeks to determine whether Salvadora persica extract mixed with zinc oxide powder can provide outcomes comparable to MTA. If successful, this natural and economical material may offer an accessible alternative for vital pulp therapy, particularly in low-resource settings, promoting tooth preservation and reducing the need for more invasive endodontic procedures.",[81],"Irreversible Pulpitis","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-06-01",{"date":85,"type":86},"2026-06-05","ACTUAL",{"date":88,"type":75},"2026-06-20",{"date":90,"type":75},"2026-12-20",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
