The objective of this study is to explore if light cured resin modified Calcium silicate could result in better clinical and radiographic success if compared to light cured Calcium hydroxide when used in indirect pulp capping treatment in primary molars.
To evaluate clinical and radiographic success of resin modified calcium silicate in comparison to light cured calcium hydroxide as indirect pulp capping materials in primary molars. P: Children aged (4-7 years) with deep carious lesions in lower primary second molars indicated for indirect pulp treatment. I: Indirect pulp treatment using light cured resin modified Calcium Silicate (TheraCal). C: Indirect pulp treatment using light cured Calcium Hydroxide. O: clinical and radiographic success.
