In vivo outcomes of indirect pulp treatment in primary posterior teeth: 6 months' follow-up

Abstract: Background:Indirect pulp treatment (IPT) is a minimally invasive procedure based on the application of a protective liner on the affected dentin, thereby preserving the pulp vitality.Aim:This study aims to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of IPT when a layer of calcium hydroxide (Dycal), mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), or Biodentine was placed over the affected dentin in primary molars.Materials and Methods:A clinical trial with sample size of 45 primary molars between the age grou… Show more

“…According to logistic regression analysis, the odds of successfully treating reversible pulpitis on a DM were almost twice better using IPT than FSP (odds ratio (OR) = 1.89 (1.04, 3.43; confidence interval (CI) = 95%)). Our results are in agreement with the previous retrospective studies and clinical trials reporting a clinical success rate above 90% with IPT [3,9,10,12,18,[21][22][23][24][25] and an above 80% with FSP [7][8][9]12,[26][27][28].…”

“…The findings were similar to the study by George et al (2015), who achieved success rate of 88.3% at six months. [14]Variable success rates have been observed ranging from 78% at four years follow up in a study of Casagrande et al to 94.4% at 12 months follow up by Boddeda et al to 100% at six months follow up by Chauhan et al [9,15,16]Factors that are held responsible for the failure of pulp capping procedure with calcium hydroxide include (1) non adherence to dentine, (2) dissolution over time, (3) tunnel defects, (4) necrosis of adjacent pulp tissue, which may lead to compromised vascularity, (5) dislodgement of particles within the body of the pulp. Misdiagnosis of pulpal status is also a factor causing failure of IPT irrespective of the agent being used.…”

“…Furthermore, a clinical trial was conducted evaluating the success of IPT performed with calcium hydroxide, MTA, and Biodentine in primary molars. 40 The sample size was 45 primary molars divided into three groups in which 15 teeth were treated with each material. 40 They found that the clinical success rate is 100% for all groups.…”
