Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Pulpitis,

• Registration Number: CTRI/2021/10/037114
• Lead Sponsor: I Fausty Sharon

Brief Summary

To aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the clinical and radiographical success of royal jelly - zinc oxide paste, royal jelly - calcium hydroxide paste , as obturation materials with conventional calcium hydroxide-iodoform paste in primary molars .It is a randomised control trial.The sample size is estimated to be 51 with 1:1:1 allocation ratio.The methodology is as follows,Children fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included in the study and randomly allocated to either of the three groups.  Pulpectomy treatment is initiated, then the obturating material to be used  is  selected and the teeth is obturated with either royal jelly - zinc oxide paste , royal jelly - calcium hydroxide paste or calcium hydroxide - iodoform paste.The clinical and radiographic success is assessed using modified Coll and Sadrian criteria at 3 and 6 months.The data obtained will be subjected to statistical analysis and the results are tabulated.
