What is Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of Pulpotomies Performed Under Intrapulpal Injection of Anaesthetic Solution about?

## Abstract ## Aim The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinically and radiographically pulpotomies carried out under intrapulpal injection of anaesthetic solution. ## Methodology Forty‐one permanent mandibular molar teeth presenting with deep carious lesions and/or exposed pulps, with or without periapical changes on radiographic examination, were treated with pulpotomy and dressed with calcium hydroxide. The teeth were divided into three groups. Group A consisted of 15 teeth, where intrapulpal anaesthesia was administered by a slow injection of lidocaine hydrochloride 2%. Group B, with 14 teeth, where intrapulpal anaesthesia was obtained with lidocaine hydrochloride 2% with adrenaline 1 : 100 000. Group C consisted of 12 teeth in which anaesthesia was performed with a mandibular block using prilocaine hydrochloride 3% with felypressin 1 : 100 000. Healing was evaluated using clinical and radiographic criteria: dentine barrier formation, absence of clinical symptoms and resolution of periapical involvement. ## Results After an observation time of 6–8 weeks (postoperative control) and 24–32 weeks (intermediate control), healing occurred in 13 teeth from group A (87%), in 11 te
