Abstract

---

There are various dental issues that require evidence-based treatment to correct or treat to prevent patients from excessive suffering. Some of the issues include dental caries, trauma, and the side effects of dental treatments. The process of pulpotomy takes place after a tooth has been treated for a pre-existing condition. It can only be commenced after the removal of caries from the periphery of the pulp to prevent the occurrence of contamination during the process of pulpotomy. In total, 11 studies were included in the metaanalysis of the full pulpotomy procedure since they met the inclusion criteria. The articles addressed the concept of full pulpotomy and the biomaterials used and reported on the use of the procedure in treating mature teeth in adults. From the review of the included literature, it is clear that full pulpotomy is effective in treating adults’ permanent teeth having irreversible pulpitis since it produces positive outcomes.

Keywords: Pulpotomy, Carious teeth, Irreversible pulpitis.
