| Popis: | The primary molars received calcium hydroxide pulpotomy with or without the electrocoagulation procedure. Teeth were evaluated clinically and radiographically at 6, 12, and 24 months after treatment. There was no statistically significant difference in success rate between calcium hydroxide pulpotomies, with and without the electrocoagulation procedure, either clinically or radiographically. These results indicate that a pulpotomy with calcium hydroxide is an effective treatment for cariously exposed pulp in primary molars and electrocoagulation can extend its indication. |
