Questions toAsk When Obtaining aHistory Regarding Pain
• Describe the pain. Does it linger or subside after stimulus is removed? Is the pain spontaneous?
• What are the frequency, severity, duration, triggering agents of the pain (hard food, hot or cold food, etc.)?
• What are the symptoms (fever, swelling)?
• What has been the analgesic use?
(Fuks etal. 2005; Fuks and Peretz 2016; Guelmann 2016)

• Behavioral management considerations
• Space maintenance as needed

BACKGROUND INFORMATION 1
Caries Removal inDeep Lesions
• There are a variety of strategies to choose from when managing a deep carious lesion with a vital pulp and without signs of irreversible pulp inflamma­tion (Ten Cate 2001; Yoshiyama et al. 2002; Ricketts etal. 2013; Green et al. 2015; Innes etal. 2016; Schwendicke etal. 2016)
• The decision among these strategies will be guided by the depth of the lesion and by the dentition, primary or permanent
• Nonselective removal to hard dentin (complete excavation or complete caries removal): this strategy uses the same criteria for carious tissue removal both peripherally and pulpally, and only hard dentin is left. This may be considered overly aggressive treatment (Innes etal. 2016)
• Selective removal to firm dentin (IPT): this strategy leaves leathery dentin pulpally while the cavity

margins are left hard after removal. These are lesions that radiographically extend to lessthan the pulpal third or quarter of dentin (Innes etal. 2016). This is the treatment of choice for both dentitions in shallow or moderately cavitated dentinal lesions
• Selective removal to soft dentin (IPT): a strategy recommended for deep cavitated lesions (radiographically extending into more than the pulpal third or quarter of dentin). Soft carious tissue is left over the pulp to avoid exposure and further injury to the pulp. Peripheral enamel and dentin are prepared to hard dentin, to allow a tight seal and a durable restoration. Selective removal to soft dentin reduces the risk of pulp exposure significantly when compared with nonselective removal to hard or selective removal to firm dentin (Maltz etal. 2012; Schwendicke etal. 2013; Innes etal. 2016)
BACKGROUND INFORMATION 2
A Protective Base
• Guidelines published by the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) recommend placement of a protective base or liner on the pulpal and axial walls of a cavity preparation to act as a protective barrier between the restorative material and the tooth (AAPD 2018–2019)
• Dentin is permeable and allows the movement of materials from the oral cavity to the pulp and vice versa. It was believed for many years that pulp inflammation was caused by the toxic effects from dental materials (Stanley 1990). However, there is sufficient evidence to show that pulpal inflammation resulting from dental materials is mild and transitory,
80 Clinical Cases inPediatric Dentistry
with adverse reactions primarily occurring as the result of pulpal invasion by bacteria or their toxins (Brannstrom 1984; Murray etal. 2001)
• Continued marginal leakage with secondary recurrent caries is probably the most common cause of pulp degeneration under restorations. In deep cavities the dentin covering the pulp is thin, and the tubules are large in diameter and packed close together providing a route to the pulp
• The materials most commonly used as cavity sealers are those that have demonstrated multisubstrate bonding ability to bond the restorative material to the tooth. These include resin cements, glass ionomers, and dentin‐bonding agents (Hilton 2009)

Treatment Technique
Due to moderate anxiety and apprehension,
• treatment was performed under a 50% nitrous oxide analgesia, with local anesthesia and rubberdam
• Selective caries removal to soft dentin (IPT), leavingthe soft dentin over the pulpal floor (Figure3.1.4a)
• The soft dentin was covered with a light‐cured liner containing glass ionomer. This material was chosen due to its biocompatible properties, its ability to promote remineralization of the demineralized dentin and its fluoride release (Figure3.1.4b)
• The tooth was restored with a class I OP amalgam restoration, due to its known sealing properties and due to the poor compliance history (Figure3.1.4c)
M. Radiographic Follow‐Up
• Right and left bitewing radiographs six months postoperative (Figure3.1.5)
N. Prognosis andDiscussion
• Prognosis for caries: the recommended protocol for decreasing caries risk depends on the parent's understanding and compliance in reducing the

identified risk factors and in attending regular recallexams. In the present case, the patient returned for recall at three and six months as requested, but the oral hygiene was still unsatisfactory, toothbrushing was not regular, and the diet was still highly cariogenic. The accumulated biofilm increased the risk for caries and jeopardized the margins of the restoration, favoring microleakage. Therefore, due to poor compliance the prognosis for new and recurrent caries is guarded
• Prognosis for selective caries removal to soft caries (IPT): the prognosis for selective caries removal to soft caries (IPT) is usually good. Selective caries

removal in symptomless primary or permanent teeth reduces the risk of pulp exposure. There is no reported difference in the incidence of pulp exposure, in the progression of the decay, and on the longevity of restorations, irrespective of whether the removal of decay had been minimal (ultraconservative) or complete (Coll etal. 2017). The success rate for this technique has been reported to be higher than 90% in primary teeth. However, its use is only recommended in patients in whom a preoperative diagnosis suggests no signs of pulp degeneration. Therefore, the value of taking a good history complemented by a careful clinical and radiographic examination cannot be overemphasized
O. Common Complications andAlternative Treatment Plans
• The most common complication of a failing IPT is
pulp necrosis and a periapical lesion. This complication might be the result of an initial misdiagnosis of an irreversibly inflamed or necrotic pulp, or due to a poor restoration leading to microleakage
• In the present case, the longevity of the amalgam
restoration will depend on periodic clinical follow‐up to check the integrity of the margins and rule out microleakage. In addition, the presence of a new proximal lesion might jeopardize the success of the treatment. Thus, in children with high caries risk an alternative approach would be to restore with a stainless steel crown following an IPT

results. The pulps remained vital.
• Radiographs should be taken after 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24months and thereafter at yearly intervals until physiologic exfoliation of the teeth
M. Prognosis andDiscussion
• Long‐term studies have shown very high success rates of pulp capping and partial pulpotomy with respect to pulp survival. Radiographic evidence of hard tissue closure of the perforation can be seen three months after pulp capping
• The primary factor reducing pulp survival after crown fracture is compromised pulp circulation due to luxation injuries. Crown fracture with concomitant luxation injury has been shown to have an increased incidence of pulpal necrosis. Cvek (1994) reported 96% success with partial pulpotomy using calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) on traumatically exposed permanent pulps. Size of the exposure or time between injury and treatment was not critical as long as the superficially inflamed pulp tissue was removed before capping. These studies included both mature teeth and teeth with immature roots. In a long‐term follow‐up study of partial pulpotomy in permanent teeth, those judged to be healed at three years remained healed 10–15 years later
• Ca(OH)2 or mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) can be used as treatment modalities for traumatized primary incisors with pulp exposure. In the past, there was a belief that pulpotomy with Ca(OH)2 resulted in internal root resorption. Today we know that most pulp

dressing agents can lead to this pathologic complication and may be due to the condition of theexposed pulp. Because the pulp is normal in traumatized exposures (except for the exposure area),removing the affected tissue brings about agood prognosis
FUNDAMENTAL POINT 1
Complicated Crown Fracture
• Definition: enamel‐dentin fracture with pulp exposure
• Diagnosis: clinical and radiographic findings reveal a loss of tooth structure with pulp exposure
• Treatment objectives: maintain pulp vitality and restore normal esthetics and function. Injured lips, tongue, and gingiva should be examined for tooth fragments
• Pulpal treatment alternatives are partial pulpotomy, complete pulpotomy, pulpectomy, and extraction
Primary Teeth
• Keep treatment as simple as possible, taking into consideration the child’s behavior and the life span of the tooth. Decisions often are based on life expectancy of the traumatized primary tooth and vitality of the pulpal tissue
• Risk of treatment and possible sequelae to the permanent tooth should be assessed versus the functional benefit resulting from treatment to the primary tooth
FUNDAMENTAL POINT 2
Advantages ofPartial Pulpotomy
• Preserves cell‐rich coronal pulp
• Increases healing potential due to preserved pulp
• Physiologic apposition of cervical dentin
• Obviates need for root canal therapy
• Preserves natural color and translucency
• Maintains pulp vitality

CHAPTER 3
https://t.me/medicina_free
BACKGROUND INFORMATION 1
Partial Pulpotomy (Cvek Pulpotomy) Indications andTechnique
Indications: Traumatic Pulp Exposures
• Initially performed only in permanent teeth. Presently, there is enough evidence that this procedure can also be applied in primary teeth
Technique
• After the diagnosis is completed, the tooth is anesthetized
• If possible, pulpal procedures should always be performed under rubber dam isolation and aseptic conditions to prevent further introduction of microorganisms into the pulp tissues (Figure3.2.3). Care must be taken when placing the rubber dam on a traumatized tooth. If any loosening of the tooth has occurred, the rubber dam clamps must be applied to adjacent uninjured teeth
• In traumatically exposed pulps, only tissue judged to be inflamed is removed. Cvek (1994) showed that with pulp exposures resulting from traumatic injuries, regardless of the size of the exposure or the amount of lapsed time, pulpal changes are characterized by a proliferative response with inflammation extending only a few millimeters into the pulp. When this hyperplastic, inflamed tissue is removed (about2 mm), healthy pulp tissue is encountered. Inteeth with carious exposure of the pulp, it may be necessary to remove pulp tissue to a greater depth toreach uninflamed tissue
• The instrument of choice for tissue removal in the pulpotomy procedure is an abrasive diamond bur, using high speed with adequate water cooling. This technique has been shown to create the least damage to the underlying tissue
• Care must be exercised to ensure removal of all filaments of the pulp tissue coronal to the amputation site; otherwise, hemorrhage will be impossible to control
• After pulpal amputation, the preparation is thoroughly washed with physiologic saline or sterile water to remove all debris; the water is removed by vacuum and cotton pellets (Figure3.2.4). Air should not be blown on the exposed pulp, because it will cause desiccation and tissue damage
• Hemorrhage is controlled by cotton pellets slightly moistened with saline (i.e. wetted and blotted almost dry) placed against the stumps of the pulp. Completely dry cotton pellets should not be used because fibers of the dry cotton will be incorporated into the clot and, when removed, will cause hemorrhage. Dry cotton pellets are placed over the moist pellets, and slight pressure is exerted on the mass to control the hemorrhage
• Hemorrhage should be controlled in this manner within several minutes. It may be necessary to change the pellets to control all hemorrhage. Ifhemorrhage continues, the clinician must carefully check to be sure that all filaments of the pulp coronal to the amputation site were removed and that the site is clean
• Sodium hypochlorite (2.5% NaOCl) can be placedon the exposure site to cause hemostasis before pulp capping. It also has the beneficial effect of killing bacteria. It was reported that when used as a hemostatic agent there was no damage to pulpal cells and it did not inhibit pulpal healing, odontoblastic cell formation, or dentinal bridging
• If hemorrhage cannot be controlled, pulpal amputation should be performed at a more apical level. Once the hemorrhage is controlled, Ca(OH)2 or MTA is placed in the canal against the pulp stump. A thin layer of intermediate restorative material or flowable composite resin is placed over the Ca(OH)2 or MTA and light cured (Figure3.2.5); otherwise, the material would be washed out during the acid etching procedure. The tooth is then sealed with an etched bonded composite strip crown restoration (Figure3.2.6)
N. Complications andAlternative TreatmentPlans
• Unsuccessful partial pulpotomy can result in pulp necrosis and/or a periapical abscess with or without a fistula. These complications can be the result of chronic irritation due to microleakage from an improperly

adapted crown. Another reason for failure can be related to recurrent trauma, a relatively common finding in young children. These complications can also occur if the initial treatment was a pulpectomy
• Extraction is an alternative, but less desirable in a young child
