Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyComparison of mineral trioxide aggregate and formocresol as pulp medicaments for pulpotomies in primary molars.
The aim of this study was to compare the effect of white mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) to that of formocresol (FC) as pulp dressing agents in pulpotomised primary molars. ⋯ MTA could be used as a safe medicament for pulpotomy in cariously exposed primary molars and could be a substitute for FC.
