Abstract

This case report determines the role of mineral trioxide aggregates (MTA) in the direct pulp capping regarding the caries and accidental pulp exposure in a 14-year-old male patient. We have applied mineral trioxide aggregates (MTA) for direct pulp capping, and it is both clinical and radiological aspects MTA has demonstrated great outcomes. During ongoing visits and examinations for two years in a timely fashion, the tooth was asymptomatic; hence we confirmed the treatment to be a success. In this case report, the use of mineral trioxide aggregates (MTA) shows efficacy and ensures us that using this material during pulp capping results in saving the vitality of the pulp and the absence of apical pathologies. Even though our results were remarkable, there needs to be new studies in bigger group trials to determine the consistency and efficacy of MTA.
