For each patient, a pulpotomy procedure is done. Group I (n=12) pulpotomy is performed and hemostasis is achieved by applying NaOCl, then the radicular pulp is covered with Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) and capped with Biodentine, Group II (n=12) pulpotomy is done as in group I and hemostasis is achieved using diode laser and remaining pulp is capped with Biodentine, Group III (n=12) pulpotomy is performed and hemostasis is achieved as in group II then radicular pulp is covered with PRF then capped with Biodentine, The teeth are then restored with Glass ionomer cement followed by composite restoration. Pain is recorded every 24 hours for 7 days after intervention. Clinical and radiographic follow-up are done at 1,3,6,9 and 12 months. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is done immediate postoperative and will be used for the assessment of the outcome of the pulpotomy procedure at the end of the study period.
Thirty six patients are included in this study. For each patient, a pulpotomy procedure is performed.
