Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pulpotomy is the most common procedure for vital primary teeth. In this procedure, the affected pulp tissue is removed to the level of healthy pulp tissue, followed by the application of a suitable medicament to promote healing and preserve the vitality of the remaining pulp. Indirect pulp capping and direct pulp capping are not recommended for pulp exposures in primary teeth due to the high risk of failure. Pulpectomy is reserved for primary teeth with irreversibly damaged pulp.
