Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  1. Haemostasis using 5.25% NaOCl (without laser) 2.Haemostasis using 940 nm diode laser at 1W of power in contact mode   After giving anaesthesia using 2% lignocaine with 1:80,000 epinephrine and rubber dam isolation, caries will be excavated using a sterilized big round diamond bur and pulp chamber will be accessed. Hemostasis will be achieved using sodium hypochlorite or 940 nm diode laser followed by MTA , GIC and final restoration in both the groups with or without apical periodontitis 
Intervention  Laser assisted Pulpotomy  Laser assisted Pulpotomy will be done using MTA followed by GIC and composite restoration.

Brief Summary   Clinico-radiographic evaluation of laser assisted pulpotomy in mature permanent teeth with irreversible pulpitis
AIM - The aim of this prospective study is to investigate the influence of laser assisted pulpotomy on outcome of  mature permanent teeth with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.
OBJECTIVE - To evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of laser-assisted pulpotomy in mature permanent teeth exhibiting clinical signs of irreversible pulpitis, with or without apical periodontitis, and with or without the application of a 940 nm diode laser, over observation periods of 1 week, 1 month, and 6 months
EVALUATION CRITERIA 
Clinical success  - Assessment of postoperative pain using Numerical rating scale (NRS)
Radiographic success - Assessment of postoperative radiograph at 6 months for evaluation of any pathosis
