Comparative Study Clinical Trial Controlled Clinical TrialComparison of mineral trioxide aggregate and formocresol as pulp-capping agents in pulpotomized primary teeth.
The aim of this study was to use clinical, radiographic, and histologic examinations to compare the relative success of gray mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), white MTA, and formocresol as pulp dressings in pulpotomized primary teeth. ⋯ Gray MTA appears to be superior to white MTA and formocresol as a pulp dressing for pulpotomized primary teeth.
