Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Combined regenerative endodontic treatment and vital pulp therapy  Under local anesthesia and rubber dam isolation, access cavity is prepared, coronal pulp is removed from orifices of canals either mesial or distal and stop bleeding using cooton pellet saturated with 1.5 percent NaOCl , 3mm thickness of MTA is placed over that orifice and sealed with GIC and composite resin simultaneously negotiate the rest of canals, thoroughly irrigate and Calicium hydroxide dressing is placed and sealed temporarily. After 3 week TF is removed and irrigate thoroughly and PRF is placed using endodontic plugger and 3mm thick MTA is placed over the orifice of canal sealed with GIC composite resin.Pateint recalled after 1 month,3 month,6 month and 9 month for follow up. Duration of study 2 year. 
Comparator Agent  Conventional root canal treatment  Under local anesthesia and rubber dam isolation access cavity is prepared and negotiate the canals using k file, biomechanical preparation is done, irrigate thoroughly using 3 percent NaOCl and obturate with gutta percha cone and restored access cavity using composite resin. 
Intervention  Regenerative endodontic procedure  Under local anesthesia and ruuber dam isolation access cavity is prepared, canal is negotiate using K file and irrigate and Calcium Hydroxide dressing placed and temporarily sealed, after 3 week TF is removed and irrigate the canals and PRF is placed using endodontic plugger, 3mm thickness of MTA will be placed over canal orifices,restord with GIC and composite resin. Pateint recalled after 1 month,3 month,6 month,9 month. Duration of study 2 year. 
Intervention  Vital pulp therapy   Under local anesthesia and rubber dam isolation,access cavity is prepared coronal pulp is removed using high speed hand peice and bleeding controlled using cotton pellet saturated with NaOCl. 3mm thickness of MTA will be placed over canal orifices,restord with GIC and composite resin. recalled after 1 month,3 month,6 month,9 month for follow up and study of duration 2 year.

Brief Summary   The foundation of restorative dentistry rest on principles that the maintenance of a healthy and functional pulp dentin complex would result in successful healing of exposed pulp. Like other connective tissue, pulp tissue has potential to heal. Root canal treatment is indicated in permanent mature teeth with pulpal and peri radicular diseases which involves complete removal of pulp tissue from the root canals, disinfection and restoring them with bioinert materials. Root canal treatment is non-conservative, non-biological and also expensive, time consuming and tooth becomes non-vital. The current scenario of endodontology has been shifted towards more biological treatment. The pulp dentin complex has the potential to regenerates even if the tooth has symptoms indicative of irreversible pulpitis. Pulpitis caused by caries is the main reason for root canal treatment. Instead of complete pulp tissue removal by pulpectomy, combined regenerative endodontic and vital pulp therapy is a conservative therapy as regenerative endodontic procedure is a biological based procedure that regenerate and repairs lost tooth structure and vital pulp therapy focuses on preserving and promoting the health of the remaining vital pulp tissue.
