title: A comparative evaluation of the fracture strength of pulpotomized primary molars restored with various restorative materials.
abstract: Sixty extracted primary molars were used in the study. After pulpotomy, these were divided into four groups on the basis of restorative materials to be used. Results showed that the Ormocer had the maximum fracture strength while the posterior Glass Ionomer Cement showed the least fracture strength among the various restorative materials used in the study.
