The aim of this study was to clinically and radiographically evaluate the effectiveness of MTA, Biodentine, Platelet Rich Fibrin along with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate and Platelet Rich Fibrin along with Biodentine as pulpotomy medicament in patients with pulpitis.
Sixty systemically healthy patients with irreversible pulpitis were enrolled in the study based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. All the enrolled patients were randomly allocated into 4 groups (15 each) Group I: MTA GROUP: Vital Pulpotomy will be done using Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) as pulp capping agent. Group II: BIODENTINE GROUP: Vital Pulpotomy will be done using Biodentine as pulp capping agent. Group III: PRF + MTA GROUP: Vital Pulpotomy will be done using PRF and Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) as pulp capping agent. Group IV: PRF+ BIODENTINE GROUP: Vital Pulpotomy will be done using PRF and Biodentine as pulp capping agent Patients were assessed at 1 day,3 months, 6 months and 9 months postoperatively for pain, pulp sensitivity test, swelling or presence of any sinus tract. All the proposed teeth were assessed radiographically at1 day, 3 months, 6 months and 9 months postoperatively.

10 ml of blood was drawn from the peripheral vein in the selected patients with the help of sterilized disposable syringe and blood was collected in the pre-sterilized borosilicate glass test tube, without any addition of anticoagulant and was immediately centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 minutes in a centrifuge unit. The product obtained after centrifugation consisted of three layers: * Acellular platelet plasma- top most layer * Platelet rich fibrin -middle layer * Red blood corpuscles- bottom layer PRF was then separated from the red blood corpuscles base with the help of sterile tweezers and scissors and squeezed with the help of sterile gauze piece
