A
  1. Need to treat immediately to avoid bacterial ingression and osmotic irritation to pulp via the dentine, tubules

Q

How do you perform fragments re attatch emt ?

A

Welbury 2012

  1. Check vitality of tooth
  2. Check fit of fragment
  3. Clean fragment and tooth with a pumice-water slurry
  4. Isolate the tooth with rubber dam
  5. Etch enamel for 30secs along fracture line and extend onto tooth fragment
  6. Bon

Q

What is the problem with a complicated fracture in a young patient?

A

Pulpal death means that root formation will not be complete and this the means that the root wall will remain thin, divergent and weak

A
  1. Within 24 hours of the incident
  2. Rubber dam

17
Q

When would you perform a pulpotomy?

A

Immature tooth
Trauma was more than 24 hours ago
Tooth still vital but pulp exposed

18
Q

What is the amount of pulp removal in a pulpotomy related to?

A

The time since exposure since more bacteria would ingress

19
Q

How much would you remove of the coronal pulp if the trauma was 24-48 hours ago? What is this process called ?

A

2-4mm

Cvek pulpotomy

20
Q

How do you perform a Cvek pulpotomy?

A
  1. LA and Rubber dam
  2. 2-4 mm Pulp removed with high speed and water
  3. Excessive bleeding that cannot be controlled with cotton wool or no bleeding means need to remove more pulp
  4. Rinse with saline or sodium hypochlorite (1-2%)
  5. Remove any remaining tags in the coronal portion
  6. Apply CaOH in the remaining cavity and allow calcify repair
  7. Place a hard cement over the CaOH and then restore (this prevents forceful injection into pulp during mastication)
21
Q

How often would you review a Cvek?

A

One month
3 month
6 monthly for. 4 years

22
Q

How can a Cvek pulpotomy become a complete pulpotomy?

A

When you remove only a small amount if pulp and if you find that more and more of it is necrotic you keep going until you find healthyh pulp which may mean a complete coronal pulpotomy

23
Q

What is the purpose of the vital pulp therapies?

A

Apexogenesis

24
Q

What does a Pulpectomy aim to do?

A

Apexification

25
Q

What are the processes of a Pulpectomy in a non vital immaturely tooth?

A
  1. Access with high speed
  2. Remove any loose fragments in the pulp chamber with gently irrigation
  3. gates glidden can be used to help improve access but be very careful not to over prepare sice walls v thin
  4. Clean and shape the canals
  5. Dry the canals and fill canal with non setting CaOH
  6. Fill the access with GIC or composite which is about 3mm thick
26
Q

How often should you review the Pulpectomy?

A

Review every 3 months

And see if the calcific baronies has formed by testing gently with paper point

27
Q

How long should it take for the barrier to form?

A

9-18 months but can be up to 2 yrs

28
Q

What material other than CaOH can be used to create the calcific barrier?

A

MTA

29
Q

What are the advantages of using MTA?

A

Forms a hard biocompatible seal within 30mins

Can access and obturation in same session

30
Q

What is the name of a new method used with pulpectomies?

A

RET

Regenerative endo technique

31
Q

How does the RET work? Ref

A

Branches and Trope 2004
Use stem cells at the apex SCAP s it can be re-populated by vital tissue which may then promote root closure and lay down dentine

32
Q

How do you manage an uncomplicated crown root fracture?

A

Remove the piece of tooth and then restore

33
Q

Where do most root fractures occur?

A

Middle

Apical third

34
Q

How would you manage a root fracture?

A

If the coronal fragment has been displaced then this needs to be repositioned ASAP to favour hard tissue formation at the join can consider splinting

35
Q

How can a root fracture repair?

A

Repair with calcified tissue
Repair with connective tissue
Repair with bone and connective tisse

36
Q

How does a repair with calcified tissue appear in a radiograph?

A

Invisible

37
Q

How does a repair with connective tissue appear on a radiograph?

A

Narrow radiolucent line with rounding of the fracture at the edges

38
Q

How does a boney repair look?

A

Repair is separated by a boney bridge

39
Q

How do you manage a cervical root fracture?

A
  1. Ensure no communication with the gingival crevice

2. If there is communication then XLA crown, internally splint or XLA crown and root

40
Q

What must you do if you decide to retain the root in a crown root fracture?

A

Remove the pulp and obturate and then

  1. Post and core
  2. Cover root for implant later
41
Q

What is the risk of pupal necrosis in a root fracture and what is the biggest indicator whether or not the tooth will necrose?

A

20%

The extent to which the coronal portion has become displaced is the biggest indicator

42
Q

What happens generally to the apical third of the fracture?

A

This usually retains it’s vitality

43
Q

How do you manage non vital root fracture?

A

You extirpate the pulp in midlle and coronal third fractures at the level of the coronal fragment only and place CaOH or MTA down the canal to achieve a calcific barrier and then union between the coronal aspect and the apical aspect will be by connective tissue and the apical part usually sclerosis
