The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of pulp therapies in young permanent mandibular molars with occlusal caries. Ex- posure of pulp due to various reasons results in inflammation of the pulp which can lead to pulpal necrosis if left untreated. The study includes patients visiting the OP of University in Chennai who are diagnosed with Class I caries in the young permanent mandibular molars. The number of pulp therapy procedures done among the study population were assessed and the results were statistically analysed and graphs were tabulated. Among the total patients, It was found that a significantly high frequency (94.6%) of pulp therapy procedures were pulpectomies; and 58.1% of cases were done in the left mandibular first molar. This study shows that pulpectomy was highly performed over pulpotomy, although many researches state that pulpotomy is preferred for immature permanent teeth. This may be due to the extent of caries.
