The aim of this study was to evaluate whether formocresol can be used successfully in teeth with carious exposure and a vital pulp with clinical symptoms of chronic pulpitis. Further, the study concerned the influence on the success rate of the vehicle for formocresol. Pulpotomies were performed on 81 primary molars. Radiographic and other clinical symptoms were used to divide the material into a coronal chronic and a total chronic pulpitis group. Chosen by lot, zinc oxide-eugenol or Pharmatec (a plaster-like non-eugenol cement) was used as the vehicle for formocresol. After an observation period of 2.5 years the success rate for the whole material was 55%. No statistically significant difference in the rate of success could be demonstrated either between the two diagnostic groups or between the two vehicle groups.
本研究的目的是评估甲醛甲酚是否能成功用于龋洞已暴露且牙髓活力正常但有慢性牙髓炎临床症状的牙齿。此外，该研究还关注甲醛甲酚载体对成功率的影响。对81颗乳磨牙进行了牙髓切断术。通过影像学和其他临床症状将材料分为冠部慢性牙髓炎组和全慢性牙髓炎组。通过抽签选择，氧化锌丁香油或Pharmatec（一种石膏样非丁香油粘固剂）用作甲醛甲酚的载体。经过2.5年的观察期，整个材料的成功率为55%。在两个诊断组之间或两个载体组之间，均未显示出成功率有统计学上的显著差异。
