ABSTRACT

This study has been carried out to evaluate the clinical and radiographic CTZ (Chloramphenicol-Tetracycline-Zinc Eugenol Oxide) antibiotic paste in pulpotomies of primary molars. A Quasi-experimental study in 43 primary molars of children aged 3 to 7 years. Pulpotomies were performed on the selected patients with the CTZ antibiotic paste. Teeth were restored with glass ionomer and preformed steel metal crowns. Clinical and radiographic evaluation was performed at 6 and 12 months. SPSS V-19 program for data analysis and chi-square test was used up to 5%. Success rates were observed during the evaluation periods of time. 93% (x² = 0.446, p>0.05) and 88.4% (x² = 0.431, p>0.05) of the clinical form; 97.7% (x² = 0.534, p>0.05) and 93% (x2 = 0.553, p>0.05) were radiographic, at 6 and 12 months, respectively. The CTZ antibiotic paste is an alternative in the treatment of pulpotomy of molars. It provides an antimicrobial effect, decreased operative time, without causing trauma to the pediatric patient.

ABSTRAK

Kajian ini telah dijalankan bagi penilaian klinikal dan radiografik pes antibiotik CTZ (Kloramfenikol-Tetrasiklin-Zink Eugenol Oksida) dalam pulpotomi pada geraham primer. Kajian eksperimen-Quasi dijalankan pada 43 geraham primer ke atas kanak-kanak berumur 3 hingga 7 tahun. Pulpotomi dilakukan pada pesakit terpilih dengan pes antibiotik CTZ. Gigi telah dipulihkan dengan glass ionomer dan pra-bentuk besi keluli korona. Penilaian klinikal dan radiografik dilakukan pada 6 dan 12 bulan. Program SPSS V-19 bagi analisis data dan ujian khi kuasa dua digunakan sehingga 5%. Kadar kejayaan diperhatikan semasa tempoh penilaian masa. 93% (x² = 0.446, p>0.05) dan 88.4% (x2 = 0.431, p>0.05) adalah bentuk klinikal; 97.7% (x² = 0.534, p>0.05) dan 93% (x² = 0.553, p>0.05) adalah radiografik, pada 6 dan 12 bulan. Pes antibiotik CTZ adalah alternatif bagi rawatan molar pulpotomi. Ia memberikan kesan antimikrobial dan memendekkan masa operasi tanpa menyebabkan trauma kepada pesakit pediatrik.
