The effectiveness of pulpotomy in mature permanent posterior teeth with irreversible pulpitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
A systematic review of 23 randomised studies estimated 12-month success at 0.92 for full pulpotomy and 0.89 for partial pulpotomy in mature permanent posterior teeth with irreversible pulpitis. Intention-to-treat two-arm comparisons favoured full pulpotomy (OR 1.85), but GRADE certainty was low to very low and evidence beyond 12 months was less certain.
