Indirect Pulp Capping

Compare the clinical performance and patient satisfaction of Egyptian MTA, Biodentine versus Calcium Hydroxide as indirect pulp capping materials in permanent teeth

Aim: To compare the outcome of indirect and direct pulp capping after partial or complete caries removal in deeply carious mature mandibular permanent molars with clinical signs indicative of moderate pulpitis. Objectives: 1. To evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of indirect pulp capping after partial caries removal in deeply carious mature mandibular permanent molars with clinical signs indicative of moderate pulpitis. 2. To evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of direct pulp capping after complete caries removal in deeply carious mature mandibular permanent molars with clinical signs indicative of moderate pulpitis. 3. To evaluate pain incidence and severity after indirect and direct pulp capping after partial and complete caries removal in deeply carious mature mandibular permanent molars with clinical signs indicative of moderate pulpitis.

The aim of this study is the clinical and radiographic evaluation of (Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) versus Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) in indirect pulp capping when used with deep carious molars over 1 year follow up.
