| Popis: | Background: Carious primary molars, symptomless, or with reversible pulpitis are most frequently treated with pulpotomy to maintain arch integrity, otherwise they would be extracted. The present study was conducted to assess clinically and radiographically the success rate of three capping materials: Nanohydroxyapatite (NHA), Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) and Formocresol (FC) in pulpotomy of primary molars.Methods: A clinical trial was carried out on healthy, four to eight years old children, with 72 second primary molars indicated for pulpotomy. Molars were divided into 3 equal groups (24 teeth each) designated to NHA (group 1), MTA (group 2) and FC (group 3) as pulp medicaments. Treated teeth were finally restored with stainless steel crowns. Subjects were monitored clinically and radiographically at three, six- and twelve-months time intervals. The difference in success rate between groups at the same time point was evaluated using Chi square test. Significant level was set at p |
