A Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Low-Level Diode Laser Full Pulpotomy in Vital Permanent Teeth

After complete deroofing, the coronal pulp was amputated to the level of the orifice using a high-speed size #2 round bur followed by rinsing the pulp chamber thoroughly with 5ml 0.9% saline solution.Hemostasis was then achieved by placing a sterile cotton pellet moistened with saline in the access cavity for 6 min.Retro MTA capping material was then applied,

after establishing hemostasis, low-level laser energy at (970nm, power .5W, duty cycle 50%, and frequency 5H) was applied to each pulp stump for 10 sec. through 320 microns optical fiber tip . The laser was used in pulsed non-contact mode at the level of the occlusal surface of the tooth.Retro MTA capping material was then applied,
