Complete Pulpotomy and Root Canal Treatment Patients With Irreversible Pulpitis With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Success of Complete Pulpotomy and Root Canal Treatment and Quality of Life in Patients With Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Conditions
Summary
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.

Interventions
the exposed pulp tissue will be amputated using fresh sterile large round diamond bur in a high-speed hand-piece under water coolant to the level of canal orifices. The pulp wound will be irrigated with 3% NaOCl. For hemostasis, sterile cotton soaked in 3% NaOCl will be placed over the pulpal wound for 2 minutes, repeated for up to 5 min if required. Root canal therapy will be initiated in cases in which haemostasis is not achieved within 5 minutes. After hemostasis, MTA will be placed in thickness of 2 to 3 mm over the pulp exposure site using a carrier. This will be followed by application of a layer of light-cure RMGIC and light-curing for 20 sec. The tooth then will be restored using composite resin following etch and rinse technique.
RCT will be performed in single visit. Root canal orifices will be explored using a DG 16 probe. A size 10 or 15 K-file will be passively inserted into the coronal two- thirds of the canal to verify a smooth glide path. Coronal enlargement will be done using Gates-Glidden drills. Working length will be determined with the help of electronic apex locator and will be confirmed radiographically. Canals will be prepared using the crown down technique with NiTi rotary instruments. The master apical file (MAF) size for each canal will be selected to be three sizes larger than the initial apical binding file at the WL. 5ml of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite using a 30-gauge side-vented needle will be used for optimal irrigation after each instrument. After completion of canal instrumentation, the canals will be irrigated with 5.0 ml of 17% ethylene-diamine-tetra acetic acid for 1 minute followed by a final irrigation with 5.0 ml of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite. Canals will be dried with
