Complete Pulpotomy and Root Canal Treatment Patients With Irreversible Pulpitis With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

About this study

there is limited endodontic research on the effects of DM on pulp tissues. Diabetic human and animal histological research have demonstrated decreased wound repair, chronic pulp inflammation and reduced dentin bridge formation. To date, no human clinical trial has examined the impact of diabetes mellitus on teeth with irreversible pulpitis. Due to the paucity of data in the literature, there is a clinical dilemma whether to recommend root canal therapy or vital pulp therapy in diabetic patients with irreversible pulpitis. To the best of our knowledge, no prospective study has evaluated the outcome of complete pulpotomy versus root canal treatment in T2DM patients with irreversible pulpitis. The aim of this study is to compare and evaluate the success rates of pulpotomy and root canal treatment in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in mature permanent teeth presenting with clinical symptoms of irreversible pulpitis.
