Abstract

This study has aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiographic success rates of calcium hydroxide pulpotomy (CH) with biostimulation (PBMT) and compare them to that of CH, formocresol (FC), mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) pulpotomies without PBMT in primary molars. A total of 172 pulpotomies were performed on primary first or second mandibular molars in 94 children who were 5–8 years old. The pulpotomy procedure was performed with four different techniques. In the PBMT group, before the CH placement, 820-nm diode laser radiation was applied to each pulp-stump for 12 s (10 mW, 2.5 J/cm2). The clinical (lack of spontaneous pain, abscess or fistula, and pathological mobility) and radiographic success (lack of periapical/furcal lesions and internal/external resorption) were recorded at 6 and 12 months. The data was statistically evaluated. p value < 0.05 was considered as significant. After 12 months, the clinical and radiographic success rate (a tooth with at least one of the findings was considered unsuccessful) was 97%/92% for FC and 97%/95%, 87%/73%, and 71%/45% for MTA, CH + PBMT, and CH, respectively. There was no significant difference between the CH + PBMT and the other groups in clinical success, while a significant difference was found between CH and FC, MTA groups. In radiographic success, there was a significant difference between the CH and the other groups. No significant difference was found between the 6th- and 12th-month results in clinical success for all the groups. A decrease in success over time was seen only in the CH group for radiographic results. CH without PBMT showed the worst clinical and radiographic results among the groups. CH + PBMT showed similar clinical success compared to the MTA and FC groups. In radiographic success, CH + PBMT showed higher success compared to CH, but this success was not high as compared to MTA and FC.
