Registered outcomes2

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryTooth SurvivalUp to two yearsNo recommendation for tooth extraction or root canal therapy. Only one tooth was enrolled/assessed per participant.
SecondaryPulp VitalityUp to two yearsNo evidence of pulpal resorption or calcification or periradicular radiolucency

Outcomes2

Each outcome the trial posted results for, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

TypeOutcomeTime framePopulationUnitsMeasured as
PRIMARYTooth SurvivalUp to two years
12 subjects were excluded in the Mineral Trioxide Aggregate group due to lack of follow-up (4 subjects were non-responsive; unable to contact 6 subjects; 2 subjects changed dentists) and 6 subjects were in the Calcium Hydroxide group (2 subjects were non-responsive; unable to contact 3 subjects; 1 subject was incarcerated).
