TSA indicated lack of firm evidence for the results of the meta‐analytic outcomes on clinical and radiographic success .
Conclusion BD and MTA have similar clinical and radiographic success rates based on limited and low‐ quality evidence .
Objectives Pulpotomy is the favored treatment for pulp exposure in carious primary teeth .
This review aim ed to compare the success rates of biodentine ( BD ) and mineral trioxide aggregate ( MTA ) pulpotomies  in primary molars using meta‐ analysis ( MA ) and trial sequential analysis ( TSA ) and also to assess the quality of the results by Grading of Recommendations , Assessment , Development and Evaluation ( GRADE ) .
Clinical and radiographical evaluation of mineral trioxide aggregate, biodentine and propolis as pulpotomy medicaments in primary teeth
Objectives The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of mineral trioxide aggregate ( MTA ) , Biodentine and Propolis as pulpotomy medicaments in primary dentition , both clinical ly and radiographically . Material s and Methods A total of 75 healthy 3 to 10 yr old children each having at least one carious primary molar tooth were selected . R and om assignment of the pulpotomy medicaments was done as follows : Group I , MTA ; Group II , Biodentine ; Group III , Propolis . All the pulpotomized teeth were evaluated at 3 , 6 , and 9 mon clinical ly and radiographically , based on the scoring criteria system . Results The clinical success rates were found to be similar among the three groups at 3 and 6 mon where as a significant decrease in success rate was observed in Group III ( 84 % ) compared to both Group I ( 100 % ) and Group II ( 100 % ) at 9 mon . Radiographic success rates over a period of 9 mon in Groups I , II , and III were 92 , 80 , and 72 % , respectively . Conclusions Teeth treated with MTA and Biodentine showed more favorable clinical and radiographic success as compared to Propolis at 9 mon follow-up
