The purpose of this study was to compare the success rates of two pulp capping materials, Biodentine TM and RetroMTA ® , used for partial pulpotomy in permanent molars after carious exposures and to compare the final restorative outcome of using composite resin to that of using a stainless steel crown. We studied children who were diagnosed with dental caries of permanent molars and underwent partial pulpotomy. The patients were followed up for more than 1 year. Clinical and radiographic evaluation were used to evaluate the success of each treatment. Fisher's exact test was used to compare the outcomes of two groups. For pulp capping agents, the success rate of using RetroMTA ® was lower than that of using Biodentine TM ( p p ® - composite resin shows the lowest success rate( p < 0.05).
