Treatment Outcomes of Pulpotomy Versus Pulpectomy in Vital Primary Molars Diagnosed With Irreversible Pulpitis

This randomised controlled trial aims to compare treatment outcomes between pulpotomy and pulpectomy when used to treat vital primary molars diagnosed with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Compared to the standard pulpectomy treatment, pulpotomy is a technically simpler procedure, less time consuming, easier for young patients to tolerate, while retaining the proprioceptive sensation of the tooth - all important advantages when treating young children.
