Posterior_Direct_Restorations Salvatore_compressed

FIG 5-31 Radiographs for clinical case 2. (a) Preoperative. (b) Postoperative with temporary filling. (c) After direct composite restoration. (d) Follow-up after 6 months. (e) After 2 years.

(f) After 4 years. (g) After 6 years. (h) After 11 years.

Conclusion

Direct pulp capping by means of a strict protocol (see Box 5-1) that requires careful case selection can be considered an effective treatment in the event of exposure due to caries or trauma. It is a valid option for teeth with a diagnosis of nonsevere reversible pulpitis.
