Management of pulp exposure with new materials
Main Article Content
Abstract
The hard dentin walls contain vascular connective tissue called dental pulp. As the primary cause of oral pain, it is also a major area of focus for endodontics and restorative care. In 2014, Garg & Garg Either severe traumas cause the pulp to become inflamed in an effort to protect it, or the caries process degenerates the dentinal framework, exposing the pulp. (Zakaria, 2016)
In order to preserve vital pulp and promote the development of reparative dentin, direct pulp-capping is a technique for applying dental material to exposed vital pulp.In 2016, Komabayashi et al.
Treatment results are influenced by the right case selection, aseptic care, bleeding control, suitable capping material, and sufficient restoration. As long as the right conditions are in place to promote pulp healing and dentinal regeneration, exposed pulp can be successfully treated. (Zakaria, 2016)
In order to encourage healing, Phillip Pfaff carried out the first pulp capping technique in 1756 by packing a little piece of gold over an exposed essential pulp.One of the first and most popular medications for promoting the creation of dentinal bridges after microscopic or large pulpal exposure is calcium hydroxide.These days, a variety of materials, including Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA), Biodentin, and others, are available for the pulp capping process.
