Brief Summary: In primary teeth decay that is near the pulp tooth nerveis treated with either a pulpotomy or indirect pulp treatment if the tooth is not going to be extracted A pulpotomy involves removing the top 12 of the pulp placing a medicationmaterial on the pulp covering the remaining pulp with a cement and the restoring the tooth The purpose of this pilot study is to gain preliminary information regarding the success of Biodentine MTA and IPT in the treatment of deep decay in childrens primary molars
Detailed Description: Pediatric patients having deep decay in primary molars seen at UMMC UMSOD and University of Maryland Rehabilitation and Orthopaedic Institute will be included in the sample Teeth with deep caries 50 into dentin will be randomly assigned using a table of random numbers to the three treatment groups

Group 1 pulpotomy with MTA Group 2 pulpotomy with Biodentine Group 3 indirect pulp treatment Treatment will be performed by board certified pediatric dentists or they will directly supervise pediatric dental residents at each site as part of their regular protocol for treating deep caries

Radiographs will be taken as prescribed in the Guideline for taking Radiographs in Children by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry

Twice yearly clinical examinations will be performed by the treating dentists or pediatric dental residents to check for any soft tissue pathology such as abscess or mobility of treated toothteeth If treatment successfailure consensus between the blinded dentists is not reached a third dentist will be consulted

The successfailure data will be entered onto spreadsheets and examined statistically using statistical software
