About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Effect of Hemostasis Time on Partial Pulpotomy in Mature Permanent Teeth With Clinical Signs Indicative of Irreversible Pulpitis

The aim of this prospective study is to investigate the influence of time taken to achieve hemostasis on outcome of partial pulpotomy in teeth with clinical signs indicative of irreversible pulpitis.

OBJECTIVE:-

Read more
  1. To evaluate clinical and radiographic success of time taken to achieve hemostasis on outcome of partial pulpotomy in mature permanent teeth with clinical signs indicative of irreversible pulpitis.
  2. To evaluate OHRQoL and pain incidence \& severity after partial pulpotomy in teeth with clinical signs indicative of irreversible pulpitis.

Participants will of age group 18 to 45 years will be included and divided into two groups based on hemostasis time:

I(Intervention) - 6minutes C (Comparison) - 7-12 minutes

Read the detailed description

TITLE:- Evaluation of hemostasis time on partial pulpotomy in teeth with clinical signs indicative of irreversible pulpitis.

P (Population) - Mature permanent molars with clinical signs of irreversible pulpitis.

I (Intervention) - 6minutes C (Comparison) - 7-12 minutes O (Outcome) - Assessment of clinical and radiographic success at 12 months of follow up .

Assessment of OHRQoL at baseline, post-operatively every 24 hours for 1 week \& incidence and severity of pain at baseline and post-operatively every 24 hours till 1 week.

Time taken to achieve hemostasis has been suggested as a reliable surrogate measure to determine the depth of inflammation in the pulp. In absence of any other intraoperative indicator, it serves as a useful guide to the extent of pulp tissue removal required during pulpotomy. This trial will help formulate evidence based guideline regarding time for hemostasis advisable to achieve optimum success during pulpotomy in teeth with signs indicative of irreversible pulpitis.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • effect of hemostasis time on outcome of partial pulpotomy in teeth with clinical signs indicative of irreversible pulpitis.Procedure or surgery

    After caries removal and pulp exposure pulp tissue is amputated and pulpal wound will be irrigated with 3% NaOCl, and bleeding will be controlled by placing a cotton pellet soaked with 3% NaOCl over the pulpal wound for 2 to 3 minutes and will be repeated if required and time taken to achieve hemostasis will be recorded using stop watch. Teeth in which bleeding will be controlled within 6 mins will be placed in Group A, while those in which it gets controlled between 7 to 12 mins will be included in Group B. Root canal therapy will be initiated in cases in which haemostasis is not achieved even after 12 minutes. Followed by capping with 2-3mm layer of MTA. A layer of RMGIC will be placed over the MTA. Then the tooth will be permanently restored with composite resin.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. 1.Clinical success rate

    Clinical criteria of success:-

    1. No pain or discomfort except for the first few days after treatment.
    2. No tenderness to palpation or percussion and the tooth is functional.
    3. Normal mobility and probing pocket depth.
    4. Healthy soft tissues around teeth with no swelling, sinus tract.

    Measured: baseline to 12 months

  2. 2.Radiographic success rate

    Radiographic success criteria:-

    1. No pathosis such as root resorption, furcal pathosis or new periapical pathosis evident on the radiograph.
    2. Complete radiographic healing

    Measured: baseline to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Post Operative Pain

    To assess incidence and intensity of pain postoperatively at every 24 hours till 7 days using Visual analogue Scale of 0 to 100 millimeter line. Score 0 means no pain and Score100 means maximum pain. To assess incidence and intensity of pain postoperatively at every 24 hours till 7 days using Visual analogue Scale of 0 to 100 millimeter line. Score 0 means no pain and Score 100 means maximum pain

    Measured: Baseline to 7 days]

  2. OHRQoL assessment

    OHIP-14 questionnare will be used to assess the quality of life.It consists of questionnaire in seven dimensions: functional limitation, physical pain, psychological discomfort, physical disability, psychological disability, social disability, and handicap. It will be scored using a Lickert scale:

    never=0; hardly ever=1; occasionally=2; fairly often=3; very often=4. Total score will be calculated ranging from 0-56, with higher score denoting the worst OHRQoL

    Measured: baseline and at 24 hours, day 2, day 3, day4, day 5, day 6 and day 7 after the treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing effect of hemostasis time on outcome of partial pulpotomy in teeth with clinical signs indicative of irreversible pulpitis. in people with Irreversible Pulpitis and Partial Pulpotomy, run by Postgraduate Institute of Dental Sciences Rohtak at 1 site in India.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in India. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

1.Clinical success rate (time frame: baseline to 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Apr 2025.
