چکیده

The stressed pulp condition is a clinical concept that describes pulps that have received repeated previous injury and survived with diminished responses and lessened repair potentials. Before performing restorative dentistry the dentist should conduct a comprehensive pulpal health evaluation on teeth to be restored. This evaluation should include (1) traditional pulp-testing methods and (2) a review of the past, present, and planned future treatment of the tooth. This analysis will usually identify teeth with stressed pulp conditions. Teeth with stressed pulps should be treated before complex restorative dentistry.

A review of the regenerative endodontic treatment procedure

Traditionally, apexification has been used to treat immature permanent teeth that have lost pulp vitality. This technique promotes the formation of an apical barrier to close the open apex so that the filling materials can be confined to the root canal. Because tissue regeneration cannot be achieved with apexification, a new technique called regenerative endodontic treatment was presented recen...

Thermal irritation of teeth during dental treatment procedures

While it is reasonably well known that certain dental procedures increase the temperature of the tooth's surface, of greater interest is their potential damaging effect on the pulp and tooth-supporting tissues. Previous studies have investigated the responses of the pulp, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone to thermal irritation and the temperature at which thermal damage is initiated. Ther...

Use of cone-beam computed tomography and three-dimensional modeling for assessment of anomalous pulp canal configuration: a case report

Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans appears to be a valuable method for assessing pulp canal configuration. The aim of this report is to describe endodontic treatment of a mandibular second premolar with aberrant pulp canal morphology detected by CBCT and confirmed by 3D modeling. An accessory canal was suspected during endodontic treatment of the...
