stomatitis, mucositits,
caries to pulp or infection
SDF risks
decay continues to develop
stains clothing
leaves metallic taste
temp stains soft tissues
can discolour cavitated lesions black
discolouration of tooth fillings
when would you not carry out endo

immunocompromised
poor healing potential
Vital pulpotomy aim
to remove the infected cornal part of the radicular pulp, stop bleeding and main the apical portion of pulp
Steps in vital pulpotomy
LA, rubber dam and gain acces to carious lesion
remove carious lesion and gain acees to the roof of bulb chamber with diamond bur
remove the cornoal pulp with steel bur or excavator
establisht ehextent of bleeding apply a ferric sulphate soaked pellet over the pulp and gain haemharrage control, if bleeding continues then reapply and wait till control achieved
resotre with ZOE paste and GIC core adn then restroation
Ferric sulphate
only used in primary teeth as casues staining and darkenin in adults
use nsCAOH or CaOH in adults
follow up for vital pulpotomy
6months clincally
12months radiographically looking for furcaiton involvement, pa path, internal and external resoorption
Pulp capping
mainins the vitatility of the tooth <24hrs exposure
arrest heammrahge with pressure and damp cotton wool rool
apply CaOH over the site and then resotre
Non vital pulpectomy
the only option to save a non vital tooth
pulp necrosis, chronic sinus, pa perio, bleeding pulp or inflammed pulp
