Abstract

Pulpotomy is one of the most common treatment modalities in pediatric dentistry where amputation of only coronal pulp is done. Radicular pulp remain untouched and treated with long term clinically successful medicaments such as formocresol, glutaraldehyde, ferric sulphate etc. The success of pulpotomy depends on assessment of the pulp and the technique. Due to the availability of newer material nowadays pulp regeneration can also be done.
