Given the growing interest in conservative procedures and the clinical need for simpler, more predictable pulp therapy outcomes in children, evaluating pulpotomy with Pulpotec as a potential alternative to pulpectomy is essential.\n\nThe aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of pulpotomy using Pulpotec versus pulpectomy using Metapex, a calcium hydroxide with iodoform paste, to treat primary molars in children diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis or necrotic pulp in the Postgraduate Pediatric Dental Clinic at Ajman University, UAE. A total of 25 contralateral paired molar samples from children aged 4 to 8 will be included in this split-mouth randomized controlled study. Each child will serve as their own control, with one tooth randomized to the intervention group (Pulpotomy using Pulpotec) and the other to the control group (Pulpectomy using Metapex) to assess patients' clinical and radiographic outcomes over a 12-month follow-up period. Patients will have their dental anxiety psychometrically assessed using the RMS pictorial scale. In addition, a pulse oximeter will be used as a biological marker in the study to measure oxygen saturation and pulse rate.",[28,29,30],"Pulp Therapy","Pulpitis - Irreversible","Pulp Necrosis",[32,33,34,35,36],"Pulpotomy","Pulpectomy","primary molars","irreversible pulpitis","necrotic pulp","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2025-11-13",{"date":40,"type":41},"2025-11-17","ACTUAL",{"date":43,"type":22},"2025-12-01",{"date":45,"type":22},"2027-05-01",{"name":47,"class":48},"Ajman University","OTHER",{"id":50,"slug":51,"hasResults":11,"nctId":52,"briefTitle":53,"officialTitle":54,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":55,"healthyVolunteers":16,"sex":17,"minAge":18,"maxAge":56,"enrollmentInfo":57,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":23,"phases":59,"briefSummary":60,"conditions":61,"keywords":65,"overallStatus":37,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":74,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":75,"startDateStruct":77,"completionDateStruct":79,"leadSponsor":81,"locationsCount":83},"100583083","clinical-and-radiographic-evaluation-of-potassium-nitrate-in-polycarboxylate-versus-mineral-trioxide-aggregate-in-vital-pulpotomy-in-primary-molars-100583083","NCT06871709","Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Potassium Nitrate in Polycarboxylate Versus Mineral Trioxide Aggregate in Vital Pulpotomy in Primary Molars","Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Potassium Nitrate in Polycarboxylate Versus Mineral Trioxide Aggregate in Vital Pulpotomy in Primary Molars: a Randomized Clinical Trial","❖ Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
