Summary
Aim of the study: To compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of mineral trioxide
aggregate (MTA) and Biodentine as vital pulp therapy materials (pulpotomy) preserving the
vitality of traumatized immature anterior permanent teeth.
Materials and Methods: fifty vital traumatized immature anterior permanent teeth exposed with
symptomatic /asymptomatic pulpitis were included in the study according to inclusion criteria
and were equally divided in two groups. Included teeth were randomly assigned to either a
control group (MTA 25 teeth) or a test group (Biodentine 25 teeth). After conducting
pulpotomy and covering pulp stumps with the MTA and Biodentine, treated teeth received
permanent restorations. Blinded clinical and radiographic evaluations were performed at
different time intervals (base line immediate postoperative, 6, 12 and 18 months) according
to clinical and radiographic criteria of success. Data were recorded and analyzed.
