Introduction: This study aims to evaluate the effects of pulpotomy, partial pulpectomy procedures and root canal treatment on the fracture resistance of the permanent maxillary mature premolar teeth. Materials and methods: A total of 260 recently extracted, two-rooted, intact maxillary first premolars extracted from patients aged between 15 and 25 years. After the preparation of a mesio-occluso-distal cavity in all teeth, the teeth were randomly assigned into 4 groups: group1: MOD cavity only (-ve control), group2: pulpotomy procedure, group3: partial pulpectomy procedure, and group4: full root canal treatment “RCT” (+ve control). Coronal access cavities were performed in groups (2,3&4). In the pulpotomy procedure (group2), removal of pulp tissues was done by ultrasonics to the level of the orifice while in the partial pulpectomy procedure (group3), removal of pulp tissues was done using
ultrasonics, 2mm below the orifices.
