Popis: Aim: To evaluate clinical and radiographic performance of Allium Sativum oil dressed in Zinc Oxide versus Mineral trioxide aggregate as pulp dressing agent in pulpotomized lower primary molar teeth. Methodology: This randomized pilot clinical trial included 30 lower primary molars indicated for vital pulpotomy and randomly allocated into two equal groups (n=15): Group (I): pulpotomy using A. Sativum oil dressed in ZnO and Group (II): pulpotomy using Mineral trioxide aggregate as pulpotomy agent. All molars were covered with stainless steel crowns and clinical and radiographic assessment was done at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months interval by help of predetermined criteria. Results: Overall clinical success rate of Group (I) and Group (II) at the end of 12 months follow-up was (93.3%) and (100.0%) respectively. There was no statistical significance difference between two groups regarding overall clinical success rate. The overall radiographic success rate at the end of 12 months was (40.0%) and (100.0%) respectively. There was a statistical significant difference regarding overall radiographic success rate at 9 and 12 months follow-up. The overall success rate of Group (I) and Group (II) at the end of 12 months was (40.0%) and (100.0%) showing a statistically significant difference between the two groups.
