Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Amnion (AM)  Amniotic membrane procured as a freeze-dried gamma-irradiated graft from the tissue bank of Tata Memorial hospital(Mumbai) will be placed inside the pulp cavity of the teeth.This procedure is carried out in one sitting of about 15-20 minutes. Amnion degrades in a few weeks after it is placed inside the pulp chamber.The tooth will be followed up for clinical and radiographical success at 1,3 and 9 month. 
Comparator Agent  Mineral Trioxide Aggregate(MTA)  MTA which is a bioceramic cement containing calcium silicates, aluminate and oxide as primary ingredients used in dentistry will be placed inside the pulp space of the teeth in one single sitting.Follow-up time periods- 1,3 and 9 months.

Details  1) Patients between the age 18-35 years who give written consent to participate in the study.
2) Permanent molars having pulp exposure due to deep caries.
 
 
ExclusionCriteria

Brief Summary   The current study is a randomized, double-blinded, parallel-group, single-center study. The study will be done in the Department of Endodontics of KGMU, Lucknow. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of freeze-dried, gamma-irradiated amniotic membrane(AM)  in pulpotomy of carious teeth with irreversible pulpitis and to compare it with mineral trioxide aggregate(MTA) that is one of the accepted standard treatment for vital pulp procedures of the teeth. Evaluation will be done by calculating the clinical and radiographical success at 1,3 and 9 months after the procedure.
The amniotic membrane will be availed from the tissue bank of Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai. Pro Root MTA from Dentsply(Switzerland) will be the comparator.
The primary outcomes of the study are-
1)Clinical success percentage for both groups.(AM and MTA)
The secondary outcomes of the study are-
1)Radiographical success percentage of both groups. 
Time points of evaluation are 1, 3, and 9 months after the procedure.
