The pulp therapy in primary teeth is still necessary even with all odontopediatrics evolution in prevention and minimal intervention, aiming to keep the tooth free of inflammation or infection and in a functional state until its exfoliation. Several materials are used as filling paste of primary teeth. In Brazil, the Guedes-Pinto Paste (PGP), an association of iodofórmio, camphorated paramonochlorophenol, prednisolone and rifamycin, has been widely used for some decades. However, current Brazilian legislation has made it difficult to commercialize antibiotics, which has made it difficult to obtain the ointment that is the association between prednisolone and rifamycin. Therefore, the objective of this clinical trial will be to test PGP without rifamycin in the pulpectomy of primary teeth, and to compare it with the treatment performed with conventional PGP.
