EVALUATION OF VITAL PULP THERAPY USING BIODENTINE IN TEETH WITH IRREVERSIBLE PULPITIS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of vital pulp therapy using Biodentine in irreversible pulpitis teeth. Subjects and methods: A non-controlled clinical study was conducted on 35 teeth diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis, which were indicated for vital pulp therapy using Biodentine. Results: The average pain level (according to the VAS scale) was 7.71 prior to treatment, gradually decreasing after the procedure at 48 hours, 1 month, and 3 months to 1.2, 0.89, and 0.53, respectively, with the most significant reduction noted at 48 hours. After one month of follow-up, the success rate was 97.1%, while only 1/35 teeth (2.9%) classified as failure. After three months of follow-up, the success rate was 32/35 teeth (91.4%), with 3/35 teeth (8.6%) classified as failures. Conclusion: The success rate of vital pulp therapy using Biodentine in teeth with irreversible pulpitis after 3 months is 91.4%.
