Abstract:
A total of 144 anterior primary incisors with formocresol pulpotomies or pulpectomies comprised the study sample. Although the former had a moderately high success rate, those incisors treated with the latter procedure had a better prognosis. It may be the preferred treatment when the extent of pulpal involvement cannot be determined.
