Pain after two types of baby tooth nerve treatment in children
Part of Mouth & dental, Pain clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to treat a severely decayed baby tooth in children: removing just the top part of the nerve (pulpotomy) versus removing the whole nerve (pulpectomy), to see which causes less pain after the procedure. Your child's participation could help find the best way to keep baby teeth comfortable and healthy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is generally healthy.
- Your child has a baby tooth with severe inflammation of the nerve (irreversible pulpitis).
- Your child is able to cooperate during dental treatment.

This study looks at how much pain children feel after a pulpectomy (a procedure to remove infected nerve tissue from a baby tooth) in the lower back teeth. It will help find better ways to keep kids comfortable after the procedure.
This study compares two ways to treat severe tooth decay in baby molars: removing only the top part of the nerve (pulpotomy) versus removing all of the nerve (pulpectomy). It aims to see which method works better for saving the tooth and relieving pain.
This study compares two treatments for a painful, severely decayed back tooth in teenagers: a newer nerve-preserving procedure (partial pulpotomy) versus standard root canal treatment. The goal is to see if the less invasive option works just as well at relieving pain and saving the tooth.
This study tests a treatment called pulpotomy for adults with a deep cavity in a tooth that is causing pain. If you have a tooth that hurts but is still healthy enough to save, this treatment might help relieve the pain and keep the tooth.
This study compares two ways of treating badly infected or dead nerves in back baby teeth, to see which works better. It aims to relieve pain and save the teeth until they naturally fall out.
This study compares two ways to treat severe tooth decay in baby molars that has reached the nerve. One method removes part of the nerve and puts a special material on it; the other removes all the nerve and fills it with a different material. The goal is to see which approach saves the tooth better and relieves pain.
