Vital pulp therapy: 2 years follow up

The size of pulp exposure and the presence of spontaneous pain were significant criteria for treatment decisions in traditional direct pulp capping procedures. Direct pulp capping was considered viable when the pulp exposure size was 1 mm or less, and the patient did not experience spontaneous pain. Root canal treatment was routinely treatment choice in cases that did not meet these criteria. However, in light of contemporary insights from the literature, a new classification of pulp conditions has emerged. Consequently, this has led to a shift in our range of indications, predominantly favoring vital pulp treatments.

Custom loop: Removing broken root canal instruments

Fracture of root canal instruments used in root canals is a common complication in endodontics. In this article, I will demonstrate the creation of a custom loop that can be used to retrieve a broken root canal instrument

Direct pulp capping with MTA: 6 years follow-up

In this paradigm, the fundamental principle is to minimize the removal of dental structure. Therefore, in cases where the pulp is exposed, we should prioritize vital pulp treatments rather than root canal treatments.
