Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparative study of the clinical and radiographic success and failure of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) and cold ceramic in treating the pulp of mandibular second molars with reversible pulpitis.
Design
Parallel-group, double-blind, randomized, phase 2-3 clinical trial on 50 patients. A table of random numbers was used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
In children who refer to the pediatric dental clinic for treatment of pulp in mandibular second molar teeth with reversible pulpitis, after initial radiography, pulpotomy treatment is performed with a standard protocol. Pulp chamber seal is done for each patient using Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) or cold ceramic. then if there are no signs and symptoms of treatment failure, the final restoration is done with Stainless Steel Crown (SSC). Clinical evaluation of treatment results of 3, 6 and 12 months and radiographic evaluations are performed in 6 and 12 month periods. The patient and the evaluator of the treatment results will not know what substance was used to flood the canal in each patient
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Patients who do not have any systemic diseases such as congenital or rheumatic heart disease, leukemia, allergic reactions to substances such as local anesthetics and latex, do not need general anesthesia and sedation, have good individual and family cooperation. deep caries with pulp exposure during caries removal.
Intervention groups
Intervention A: The remaining pulp is covered with paste MTA (cerkamed medical company poland ). Intervention B: The remaining pulp is covered with cold ceramic paste (Sarv Javaid modares, Iran).
Main outcome variables
The percentage of occurrence of pain; sensitivity to accuracy; swelling; pathological laziness; root lucency; internal or external root analysis; Widening of the Periodontal Ligament (PDL); bone loss; and lamina dura integrity

General information

Reason for update
According to endodontic and pediatric professors, reversible pulpitis is correct term.

Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria:
The presence of two-thirds of the root length in terms of radiography; and lack of radiographic evidence of pulp degeneration, such as internal or external root resorption, furca radiolucency, intraradicular or periapical bone destruction, pulp stones. Includes patients who have no systemic diseases such as congenital or rheumatic heart disease, leukemia, allergic reactions to substances such as local anesthetics and latex. They have good individual and family cooperation, deep pitted lesions whose pulp is exposed during caries removal.
Exclusion criteria:
The presence of any clinical and radiographic symptoms indicating pulpal degeneration or physiological analysis of more than 2/3 of the root (imminence of tooth loss) non-physiological analysis of the root or possibility of proper tooth restoration.

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
In this study, a simple method using a table of random numbers will be used to randomly select people; In this way, first, the order "AB" is considered for the odd number, and the order "BA" is considered for the even number. Then we refer to the table, choose a column randomly and if the first selected number is odd, we use the order 'AB'; In this way, the first person in group A will receive Mineral Trioxide Aggregate treatment and the next person will receive cold ceramic treatment spontaneously in group B. In the same way, if the number obtained is even, consider the order of BA and the first person will be placed in group B and receive cold ceramic treatment, and the next person will automatically be placed in group A and receive Mineral Trioxide Aggregate treatment. This work is repeated for 25 times to get 25 samples in each group.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
Clinical and radiographic evaluations are performed by a person who does not know the type of substance used in each group. - The patient will not know the type of material used in each tooth.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group A:First, a periapical radiograph will be prepared from the desired tooth using the standard parallel technique with the help of Rinne xcp (dentsply, USA). Film number zero is used with speed E (Kodak, Ekta speed) or speed F (Kodak, Insigne). Then appropriate local anesthesia is performed using lidocaine 2% and epinephrine 1:80000 (Darou pakhsh, Tehran, Iran) and then the surface of the tooth is primed with chlorhexidine 0.2% (Shahre Daru, Tehran, Iran) and the coronal caries are removed by providing isolation with rubberdam under sterile conditions and with an Angle No. 4 burr.In the next step, the roof of the pulp chamber is removed with a 330 high speed bur along with water spray and the coronal access hole is completed. Using a large process bur (No. 6), the coronal pulp is completely removed from the entrance of the canals and the pulp chamber is washed with normal saline. Hemostasis will be achieved at the site of coronal pulp excision, on the entrance of the canals, using a sterile cotton ball moistened with normal saline within 5 minutes (2,3,5). If homeostasis is not achieved, the patient is excluded from the study. The remaining pulp is covered with two millimeters of paste (cerkamed Medical Company Poland) MTA+. which will be obtained by mixing the powder with sterile saline at a ratio of 3:1 and is covered. A layer of zonalin (Golchadent company) is temporarily placed and the patient is visited again seven days later (short term follow up). Before placing the Stainless Steel Crown (SSC), the operator first checks the clinical signs, pain, sensitivity to impact, swelling, laxity and fistula. In the absence of the mentioned cases, the tooth will be repaired with SSC. The patient will not know the type of material used in each tooth.
