• Accepted endodontic therapy for primary teeth can be divided into two categories: vital pulp therapy (VPT) and root canal treatment (RCT). The primary goal of pulp therapy is to treat, restore, and save the affected tooth. Vital pulp therapy (VPT) is a way of saving deciduous teeth.

Vital pulp therapy for primary dentition has evolved and improved immensely. PURPOSE This systematic review and meta-analysis assessed outcomes in primary teeth for the vital pulp therapy (VPT) options of indirect pulp therapy (IPT), direct pulp capping (DPC), and pulpotomy after a minimum of 12 months to determine whether one VPT was superior. 0000017727 00000 n

In addition to these, in primary teeth it is important to preserve the tooth until its natural exfoliation time, thus preserving arch integrity(2). Accepted endodontic therapy for primary teeth can be divided into two main categories: vital pulp therapy (VPT) and root canal treatment (RCT). Vital pulp therapy is performed to preserve the health status of the tooth and its ultimate position in the arch for the expected life of the tooth. Though primary teeth are eventually shed, they are needed for speech production, proper chewing, and to guide the proper alignment and spacing of permanent teeth. The rationale for completing a pulpotomy on a primary tooth is based upon the premise that by removing all or partial areas of the affected coronal pulp tissue, there continues to remain vital tissue in the remaining areas of the root canal.

Reports do, however, support this pulp-preserving approach even to symptomatic teeth. Nowak, Arthur J. Pediatric Dentistry: Infancy through Adolescence. 0000092229 00000 n

New and reliable materials with predictable outcomes have recently become available. The panel recommended against the use of calcium hydroxide as pulpotomy medicament in primary teeth with deep caries lesions. The primary objective of pulp therapy is to maintain the integrity and health of the teeth and their supporting tissues. Early loss of deciduous teeth is not a good indication as the occlusion of succeeding permanent teeth depends on the existence of these teeth. Formocresol has been a popular pulpotomy medicament in the primary dentition and is still the most universally taught pulp treatment for primary teeth.
