The aim of this study is to correlate time to achieve haemostasis and concentration of IL-8 in pulpal blood to the outcome of partial pulpotomy after 3 and 6 months follow up.

non-contributory medical history
Deeply carious permanent molar with a preoperative provisional diagnosis of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.
History of spontaneous pain and nocturnal pain which aggravates on lying down.
No history and signs of sinus tract, pus exudate, fistula, clinical swelling.
Spontaneous pain and/or with sharp and lingering pain upon cold testing using Endo-Ice.
Restorable tooth with probing pocket depth ( <3mm)
Tooth mobility within normal limits
Complete caries excavation would likely result in pulpal exposure.
Haemorrhage from the pulp exposure site stops with NaOCl placement within 15 minutes.
The radiolucent caries penetrating the entire thickness of the dentine (extremely deep caries).
Absence of periapical or furcation changes in the radiograph.
1)Unexposed pulp after complete caries excavation.
2)Uncontrolled pulpal haemorrhage during the procedure lasting more than 15 minutes.
3)Absence of bleeding after pulp exposure; the pulp is judged as necrotic or partially necrotic.
4)Tooth showing negative response to cold testing or presence of sinus tract or swelling.
5)Non-restorable teeth with cracks or subgingival caries, associated sinus or swelling.
6)Tooth with poor periodontal support.
7)Prominent radiolucency at the furcation or periapical regions.
8)Presence of Immature root apices/ apical resorption.
9)Presence of internal or pathologic external root resorption, calcification or pulp canal obliteration.
