Vital Pulp Treatment A comprehensive reference work covering all aspects of vital pulp treatments in clinical practice

Vital Pulp Treatment offers a comprehensive overview of existing and developing vital pulp therapies, the science that underpins them as well as their clinical applications. Preserving dental pulp tissue is critical to oral health and vital pulp treatments are designed to maintain, repair, and regenerate this tissue. With a focus on clinical practice, this book begins with the diagnosis and causes of pulpitis before elaborating on the application of vital pulp treatment after trauma, caries, or dental procedures. Later chapters cover a variety of extent treatment modalities including caries removal, pulpotomy, direct or indirect pulp capping and regenerative endodontic therapies.

Vital Pulp Treatment readers will also find:

Clinical photographs to support and highlight key parts of the text

Detailed discussion of topics including pulp diagnostics, deep caries, and pulp exposure management, as well as controversial and clinically relevant discussions

Dedicated treatment of each therapeutic modality with a summary of the state of the art in each case Outcome measures and follow-up guidelines

Rooted in evidence-based dentistry and robust scientific research, Vital Pulp Treatment is ideal for dentists, endodontists, restorative dentists, and dental students looking for information on this critical component of modern minimally-invasive dentistry.
