Brief Summary  

Abutment teeth indicated for fixed partial denture, presents with challenge of inadequate prosthetic space that requires an endodontic management to achieve sufficient prosthetic requirements. Studies have shown that vital teeth under a fixed partial denture had better prognosis when compared to root canal treated abutment leading to alternative treatment like full coronal pulpotomy which gives a win – win situation of achieving sufficient prosthetic space as well as maintains the radicular pulp vitality has to led to this clinical trial. 41 patients with 82 abutment teeth indicated for endodontic management will be included after satisfying the inclusion criteria. Group 1(n=41) Full Coronal Pulpotomy with biodentine and Group 2(n=41) intentional root canal treatment will be block randomised in every patient, followed by fixed partial denture.1year follow up is done to assess the clinical and radiographic success of the treatment procedure using respective indices.
