Abstract

Aim: management of a clinical case with irreversible pulpitis for young adult molar with closed apices using analogous blood derivative PRF and evaluating the clinical and radiographic success for coronal pulpotomy. Summary: A 18 years old male patient reported to the screening clinic, was referred to endodontic clinic with acute pulpitis diagnosed in left first molar tooth. Deep occlusal caries involving pulp, with history of spontaneous lingering pain associated with sign and symptoms of pulpitis. Standard clinical care protocol was strictly implemented, rubber dam isolation was followed by coronal pulpotomy. Blood drawn from cuboidal vein. Platelet rich fibrin membrane placed over the remaining pulp and restored with MTA and finally with Glass ionomer cement. Follow-up results clinically and radio-graphically were encouraging and successful at day 1 to 24 months. No post-operative pain, the treated tooth responded to pulp sensibility test and radiographs revealed periapical healing. However, for standardization of the clinical procedure well designed research study is further needed.
