Brief Summary: The aim of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographic success rates of indirect pulp treatment (IPT) performed by combining 2% chlorhexidine gluconate with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) versus IPT performed with MTA in children's vital primary molars. A randomized, split-mouth design including 40 children aged 4-8 years was implemented. The study sample composed of 80 primary molars with deep carious lesions. Each child had 1 pair, one tooth from each pair was allocated randomly either to the 2% chlorhexidine gluconate/MTA group or the MTA group. All teeth were restored with stainless steel crowns. Follow-up is carried out to evaluate the teeth clinically and radiographically.
Detailed Description: A double blinded, randomized, controlled clinical trial was performed in a split-mouth design. Eighty primary molars in forty subjects were randomly allocated that each subject had one tooth treated with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate and MTA (experimental group), and the other tooth treated with only MTA (control group).

The study was held at King Abdulaziz University Dental Hospital (KAUDH), Jeddah. Forty healthy children with the age range 4- to 8-year-old were included. Each patient had at least two first primary molars or two second primary molars with deep occlusal or proximal caries not approaching the pulp indicated for IPT.

Preoperative periapical radiographs of the teeth considered for treatment in the study were made using extension cone paralleling technique in the x ray machine.

The procedure was performed in two visits by one operator to allow for the setting of MTA. Stainless steel crowns were used as final restorations.
