Abstract

To evaluate Histological assessment of dental pulp response to BioGraft – HA

fifteen deciduous molars were treated with pulpotomy using BioGraft – HA

histological evaluation was observed at the end of 4 weeks. On light microscopic observations, minimal inflammatory reaction, hyperemia and formation of dentinal bridge was observed. None of the samples showed Pulpal necrosis

The results of this study revealed that BioGraft – HA is a potential pulpotomy agent for deciduous molars.
