Summary

This study looks at two common treatments for cavities in children's baby molars: ferric sulfate and sodium hypochlorite. Researchers will check how well each treatment worked by examining kids aged 4-9 during routine dental visits over 2 years. The goal is to see which agent leads to fewer problems like pain or infection, helping dentists make better choices.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ferric sulfate and sodium hypochlorite
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help dentists choose the better pulpotomy agent for saving children's baby teeth.
What could go wrong
This is a small, observational follow-up study, not a new treatment trial. Results may not apply to all children or dental practices.

Who is studied

The study population consists of children aged 4-9 years who were treated at the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry. These participants had previously undergone pulpotomy treatment in vital primary molars using either ferric sulfate or sodium hypochlorite as part of routine clinical care. The study includes patients with available clinical records and diagnostic radiographs, and who are followed during routine recall visits at 6, 12, and 24 months. No additional interventions are performed as part of the study.
