Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  bio-c Repair material (ANGELUS)  Bio-C repair (angelus) is a bio ceramic material. for this trial we will be checking its efficacy as a pulpotomy agent 
Comparator Agent  biodentine (SEPTODONT)  Biodentine is tricalcium silicate based dentin substitute material. For this specific trial we will be using it to see its efficacy as pulpotomy agent. 
Comparator Agent  endosequence (BRASSELER,USA)  Endosequence (brasseler, USA) is also a calcium silicate based material. for this trial we will be checking its efficacy as pulpotomy agent 
Comparator Agent  mineral trioxide aggregate  MTA is calcium silicate based bio material used for various dental repair treatments. For this specific trial we will be using it to see its efficacy as pulpotomy agent.

Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
• The aim of this study will be to evaluate the success of pulpotomy in mature permanent molars with irreversible pulpitis using different bio-materials based on clinical and radiographical analysis.  in the time frame of 6 months (after the pulpotomy) this study will evaluate the success of pulpotomy in mature permanent molars with irreversible pulpitis using different bio-materials based on clinical and radiographical analysis. 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
to Assess the effectiveness of each bio-material as pulpotomy agents.  To compare the success rate of different bio-materials (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate, Biodentin, EndoSequence root repair material, Bio-C repair putty material) used as pulpotomy agents.

Brief Summary  

The purpose of this in-vivo study will be to compare the various bio-materials as pulpotomy agents in mature permanent molars with irreversible pulpitis.

●             Adequate number of patients will be selected by following the proper inclusion and exclusion criteria.

●             After the tooth has been properly diagnosed and tested to fall under inclusion criteria, an informed consent will be obtained from the patient.

●             After giving local anesthesia, tooth will be isolated using rubber dam.

●             Using sterile round bur in high speed air-rotor hand piece along with copious irrigation, caries will be removed and pre-endodontic build up will be done, followed by an access cavity.

●             The coronal pulp will be removed till the level of orifices using sterile sharp spoon excavator and copious irrigation with saline.

●             Bleeding will be controlled using 5% sodium hypochlorite on a cotton pellet.

●             After the haemostasis, the pulp chamber will be filled with allocated material, followed by temporary restoration.

●             First baseline follow-up will be done after 24 hours, followed second follow-up after 7 days.

●             After 2 weeks, if the symptomatic improvement is seen, the temporary restoration will be replaced by post-endodontic restoration.

●             The follow-up of the patient will also be done after 3 months, 6 months and 12 months, noting down the clinical symptoms and the radiographic changes.

●             The results obtained will be compared and subjected to statistical analysis.
