About this study

Research content: select the patients with accidental pulp exposure or decayed pulp exposure in the pediatric dentistry department of The Affiliated Stomatology Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from February 2022 to October 2022.

  1. Strictly implement the case selection criteria to reduce the deviation. 2. Conduct uniform training and assessment for doctors. 3. Record in detail: the age, gender, tooth position, cavity type, x-Ray examination, size and reason of pulp exposure, time of hemostasis, filling material, signs and symptoms of initial consultation and follow-up, etc. 4. Analyze the clinical data to study the success rate of direct pulp capping of primary teeth; analyze the influence of various factors to study how to improve the success rate of direct pulp capping of primary teeth.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Success rate of the direct pulp capping (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
