Removal of pulp tissue from the canals of primary molars
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Conventional root canal treatment | Active comparator | The caries will be removed. An excavator will be used to remove the coronal portion of the dental pulp while the radicular portion will be cleaned using k- files. 2.5% Sodium hypochlorite will be used as irrigant solution.The canals will be filled with ZOE cement and a stainless-steel crown will be inserted to restore the tooth. Receives: Procedure: Conventional Root canal treatment in primary molars |
| Regenerative endodontic treatment using MTA | Experimental | Access cavity will be prepared in each primary molar then each canal will be copiously irrigated by sodium hypochlorite. Triple antibiotic paste will be inserted in eash canal then sealed with temporary restoration till the second visit.
In the second visit canals will be irrigated with EDTA, after that induction of bleeding will be created by overinstumentation inside each canal. Finally sealed with MTA under the GIC restoration and S.S.C Receives: Procedure: Regeneration in primary molars by using MTA |

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Regeneration in primary molars by using MTA, Regeneration in primary molars by using biodentine and Conventional Root canal treatment in primary molars in people with Pulp and Periapical Tissue Disease, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.
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 2 inclusion and 4 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 1 Jul 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 Egypt. 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?
Clinical measures (time frame: 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 1 Jul 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
