    • Vital pulp due to dental caries with no clinical sign of pulpal degeneration (spontaneous pain, fistula, mobility) prior to treatment.

3 - Preliminary radiographs indicating absence of pathologic internal or external root resorption, or any evidence of inter-radicular bone destruction.

4 - Absence of pre-operative pain or they will only have a short-term pain. 5 - No tenderness to percussion. 6-Age ranging 4-6 years.

group AMTA materialplaced with light pressure over the pulpal stumps (if hemorrhage control will not be achieve, tooth will be exclude ) 9.The pellet will be remove, and the pulp chamber filled with MTA. 10.The tooth will prepare and restore with a stainless steel crown cemented with glass ionomer cement
group BMTA material1. Pre-operative radiograph showing all roots and their apices. 2. Local anesthesia will be administered and a rubber dam will take place ,that ensure good isolation of the treated teeth. 3. Removal of caries 4. Pulp chambers will access using a no.330 bur in a high-speed hand piece with water coolant. 5. Removal of any remains of coronal pulp tissue with sharp sterile excavator or large bur in slow hand piece 6. Pulp amputation will perform using a spoon excavator. 7. Hemorrhage control will obtain within 5 minutes using sterile cotton pellets placed with light pressure over the pulpal stumps (if hemorrhage control will not be achieve, tooth will be exclude ) 8. The pellet will be remove, and the pulp chamber will be filled with MTA. 9. The tooth will prepare and restore with a stainless steel crown cemented with glass ionomer cement. The periapical radiographic will be taken at this baseline visit .
