Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

The study was conducted in the Department of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, ITS Dental

College, Hospital & Research Centre.  50 teeth were indicated

for pulpotomy in 52 children. After obtaining written consent from their parents /guardians,

75 the teeth were divided into two equal groups (N=25). MTA and 3Mixtatin were used in the two groups. In both the groups, pulpotomy was performed and Clinical and radiographic evaluation was done after three months, six months and at the end of one year.  The overall success rates of 3Mixtatin and MTA were found to be similar and statistically insignificant over the period of 1 year follow up. At the end of the study, the following conclusion was drawn:

ï‚·  no significant difference in the overall success rates of pulpotomy procedure

using MTA and 3Mixtatin over a follow-up period of one year when used for the

management of deeply carious primary teeth with no clinical/radio-graphic signs or

symptoms of irreversible pulp inflammation.

ï‚·  no statistically significant difference in clinical and radiographic success of

MTA and 3Mixtatin at 3rd month, 6th month and at the end of one year.

ï‚· PDL widening was the common radiographic failure in both the groups i.e MTA and

3mixtatin.

ï‚· no clinically significant difference in the overall success rate between

maxillary and mandibular primary molars.
