Phase 4

Not yet recruiting

• Conditions: Pulpitis,

• Registration Number: CTRI/2024/05/067871
• Lead Sponsor: Dr N Devi Vyshnavi

Brief Summary

Carious enamel andinfected dentine will be removed followed by placement of biodentine in group A and protooth cement in group B . Both thegroups will be restored with glass ionomer cement.

The teeth will beevaluated at 1, 3, 6 and 9 months periodically to assess the clinical andradiographic outcomes. The data will be subjected to statistical analysis.
