    The document classifies pulp conditions into three categories: 1) Normal pulp, 2) Reversible pulpitis which includes tooth caries, non-carious lesions, and accidental pulp exposure/injury, and 3) Irreversible pulpitis which is either a vital or non-vital pulp that requires removal of the pulp. Biological treatments are then described including pulp capping, pulpectomy (root canal therapy), and pulpotomy.

    CLASSIFICATION OF PULPAL PATHOSIS

    Based on the classification created by Prof. Arabska-Przedpelska

    II. Reversible pulpitis


    I. Normal pulp

    •Tooth caries
    exposure of the pulp during fracture of the crown (trauma)
    •Non-carious lesions (abfraction,
    exposure of the pulp during grinding preparation
    abrasion, attrition, erosion)
    • Accidental pulp exposure
    • Accidental pulp injury
    • Carious pulp exposure

    BIOLOGICAL TREATMENT

    III. Irreversible pulpitis

    vital pulp non-vital pulp


    1) pulp necrosis
    2) gangrene of the pulp
    REMOVAL OF THE PULP
    BIOLOGICAL TREATMENT

    Endodontic Procedures
    Pulp capping
    A covering is placed over an exposed or nearly
    exposed pulp to encourge the formation of irritated
    dentin at the site of injury

    Indirect pulp cap is indicated when a thin partion of


    dentin is still intact

    Direct pulp cap is indicated when the pulp has been


    slightlu exposed
    BIOLOGICAL TREATMENT

    Vital pulp therapy. (a) Indirect pulp capping; (b) direct pulp capping; (c) pulpotomy.
    (D = Dentin; P = Pulp; CM = Capping material; F = Filling).

    Pulpectomy

    Also reffered to as root canal therapy,procedures


    involves the complete removal of the dental pulp.
