A review of pulp therapy for primary and immature permanent teeth.

Journal of the California Dental Association Vol. 41 (8) : 585-95 • Aug 2013

The aim of pulp therapy in primary and young permanent teeth is to maintain a functional tooth so that arch integrity is preserved in a growing child. History, clinical evaluation and radiographic findings should be integrated to arrive at pulp diagnosis. Vital pulp therapy should be attempted whenever the pulp is diagnosed to be vital. Nonvital pulp therapy should be performed for strategically important primary teeth. Revascularization is an emerging technique for immature necrotic teeth.
