Non-vital teeth are those whose nerves lack vitality and there is no blood flow inside. This may be due to deep caries or dental trauma that irreversibly affects the dental pulp.

A correct history, clinical and radiographic evaluation is necessary in these cases to determine the appropriate treatment for these cases (dental extraction, pulpectomy, lesion sterilization tissue repair).

Pulpectomy of primary molar teeth is considered as a reasonable treatment approach to ensure either normal shedding or a long-term survival in instances of retention.

Despite being a more conservative treatment option than extraction, efficient pulpectomy of bizarre and tortuous root canals encased in roots programmed for physiologic resorption that show close proximity to developing permanent tooth buds presents a critical endodontic challenge. This article aims to provide an overview of this treatment approach, including partial and total pulpectomy, in primary molar teeth.

Oral Medicine


In addition, the recommended guidelines that should be followed, and the current updates that have been developed, while commencing total pulpectomy in primary molars are discussed.

Management of Endodontic Emergencies: Pulpotomy Versus Pulpectomy

Endodontic

Recent studies report a 60-82% incidence of endodontic emergencies among all dental emergencies. Within this group, 20-42% of patients seek care for teeth with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (SIP).

Additionally, about 60% of SIP patients also complain of symptomatic apical periodontitis (SAP). While pain due to a severely inflamed pulp is characterized by dull, throbbing and lingering pain sensations, it can be spontaneous or in response to an external stimulus, such as hot, cold or chewing.

This makes SIP the bulk of the emergency cases seen in dental clinics. The goal of management of endodontic emergencies is to quickly and effectively manage pain and infections thereby also minimizing the development of persistent pain and the formation of periapical pathology.

Endodontic


Pharmacological management such as intramuscular or infiltration injection of ketorolac trimethamine (injectable NSAID) can significantly attenuate pain in patients with moderate to severe pulpal pain over a three-hour tested time or oral administration of ibuprofen sodium dihydrate over a one-hour time period.
