abstract={The aim of this retrospective study is to clinically and radiographically assess the ferric sulfate and tricalcium silicate (Biodentine<SUP>TM</SUP>) pulpotomies. The study consisted a total of 25 children- 9 girls and 16 boys aged between 3-6 yrs. From the patients¡¯ medical records we determined that 35 primary molars were pulpotomied with Biodentine<SUP>TM</SUP> and 65 were pulpotomied with ferric sulfate (FS). Patients were recalled in the post-op 6<SUP>th</SUP> month for clinical examination and in the post-op 12<SUP>th</SUP> month for both clinical and radiographic examination. While a statistically significant difference was found between the factors of age, gender and pulpotomy agents (P&lt;0,05), no statistically significant difference was found between the jaw and teeth types (P>0,05). As a result, recently developed tricalcium silicate based agents (Biodentine<SUP>TM</SUP>) can be used as an alternative to FS in pulpotomy.},
