Abstract Purpose To evaluate Histological assessment of dental pulp response to BioGraft – HA Method fifteen deciduous molars were treated with pulpotomy using BioGraft – HA Results histological evaluation was observed at the end of 4 weeks. On light microscopic observations, minimal inflammatory reaction, hyperemia and formation of dentinal bridge was observed. None of the samples showed Pulpal necrosis Clinical significance The results of this study revealed that BioGraft – HA is a potential pulpotomy agent for deciduous molars.
