Vital pulp therapy:
Requirements for Success
• Treatment of a noninflammed pulp
• Bacteria-tight seal
• Pulp dressing
MTA as a capping agent
• high pH similar to calcium hydroxide when unset
• after setting, will create an excellent bacteria-tight seal
• hard enough to act as a base for a final restoration
• need a moist environment for at least 6 hours to set
properly—> two step procedure
• cause discoloration in the tooth crown
• high cost

• anesthesia,possibly without a vasoconstrictor
• rubber dam
• superficial disinfection
• 1-to 2-mm deep cavity into the pulp using a high-speed hand piece with a sterile diamond bur
• If bleeding is excessive, the pulp is amputated deeper until only moderate hemorrhage is seen
• excess blood is carefully removed by rinsing with sterile saline and the area is dried with a sterile cotton
pellet
• 5% NaOCl is recommended to rinse the plural wound
• chemical amputation of the blood coagulum
• remove damaged pulp cells, dentin chips, and other debris
• provide hemorrhage control with minimal damage the normal pulp tissue underneath
• do not allow blood clot to develop

conclusion
• decrease the risk of endodontic treatment
• shorten chair time of removing infected dentin
• safer material in deciduous teeth pulpotomy than FC
• reduce treatment expenses
• improve treated tooth’s prognosis
discussion
• long-term follow-up
• need to examine cytotoxity and calcinogenicity over
longer duration
• need to study treating inflamed pulp tissue
