The objective of this prospective randomized clinical trial is to assess clinically and radiographically, the effect of NeoPutty as a pulp medicament following coronal pulp amputation in human primary molars with carious pulp exposure in comparison to Formocresol (FC).
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
50
Following removal of the coronal pulp with a round bur and hemostasis, the pulp stumps in the study group will be covered with Neo-Putty ® according to the manufacturer's instructions. Neo-Putty will be placed in the prepared cavity, and then covered with Vitrebond® and with a reinforced Zinc Oxide-Eugenol (IRM, Bayer-Leverkussen, Germany). In the control group, a cotton pellet moistened with full-strength FC will be placed for 5 minutes on the amputated pulp, after reaching hemostasis. The pulp stumps will be then covered by IRM
