Clinical and radiographic evaluation of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), TheraCal LC, and propolis when used as an indirect pulp capping agent in primary teeth over a period of 6 months.
A total of 42 primary molar teeth from children aged 4-10 years were chosen for the study. The teeth were divided equally into three groups (group I: MTA, group II: light cured calcium silicate, and group III: propolis). The teeth were followed up clinically and radiographically at 3 and 6 months. The teeth that showed successful treatment outcomes clinically and radiographically were evaluated for the amount of dentin bridge formed at the end of 3 and 6 months, which was measured using CorelDRAW software. The data obtained was analyzed statistically using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21.
The mean change in dentin thickness from baseline to 3 months in group II was found to be the highest, followed by groups I and III. The mean change in dentin thickness from 3 months to 6 months was highest in group I, followed by groups III and II. The mean change in dentin thickness from baseline to 6 months in group II was found to be significantly higher than that of group I, followed by group III.
Clinically and radiographically, all three materials showed favorable outcomes when used as an indirect pulp capping material with significant reparative dentin formation. The highest amount of dentin deposition was recorded with light-cured calcium silicate, followed by MTA and propolis, respectively.

对无机三氧化物聚合物（MTA）、TheraCal LC和蜂胶作为乳牙间接盖髓剂使用6个月后的临床和影像学评估。
本研究共选取42颗4 - 10岁儿童的乳磨牙。将牙齿平均分为三组（第一组：MTA，第二组：光固化硅酸钙，第三组：蜂胶）。在3个月和6个月时对牙齿进行临床和影像学随访。对临床和影像学显示治疗成功的牙齿，评估3个月和6个月末形成的牙本质桥的量，使用CorelDRAW软件进行测量。使用社会科学统计软件包（SPSS）21版对获得的数据进行统计学分析。
发现第二组从基线到3个月牙本质厚度的平均变化最高，其次是第一组和第三组。从3个月到6个月牙本质厚度的平均变化在第一组最高，其次是第三组和第二组。发现第二组从基线到6个月牙本质厚度的平均变化显著高于第一组，其次是第三组。
在临床和影像学上，当用作间接盖髓材料时，所有三种材料均显示出良好的效果，有显著的修复性牙本质形成。光固化硅酸钙记录的牙本质沉积量最高，其次分别是MTA和蜂胶。
