Pulp Capping

Pulp Capping in Dubai

To keep a healthy smile, tooth decay needs to be treated quickly and effectively. Are you looking for Pulp Capping in Dubai or Al Furjan. Your dentist knows how to fix damage caused by plaque in many different ways, from simple fillings to root canals. Depending on the level of decay, a root canal might not be needed if a procedure called “pulp capping” is done. Find out more about the different ways to treat pulp capping and when they are used.

What Are The Types of Pulp Cap Treatment?

Depending on the type of tooth and how badly it is decayed, there are two ways to treat the pulp. Your dentist might not know the best way to treat you until all of the decay is gone. Many people choose pulp capping over a root canal because it is less painful and costs less. You may still need a root canal, though, even after the pulp cap procedure is done.

Direct Pulp Caps

When the healthy pulp comes to the surface, your dentist will do direct pulp capping. This process consists of:

  • Getting rid of rot : The dentist will use a drill to get rid of the decayed tooth material and the cavity. Then they will clean the site very well.
  • Adding sedative material : Once all the decay is gone, the dentist will use a special material (Calcium Hydroxide or Mineral Trioxide Aggregate) to protect the pulp from bacteria until the dentin can heal itself.
  • Filling the cavity : Lastly, a temporary or permanent filling is put in the tooth to make it stronger and let the person bite and chew normally.

Direct pulp capping only happens when the pulp of a permanent tooth is exposed. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) says that a direct pulp cap should only be used on a primary tooth when the pulp is exposed because of a physical injury. If the removal of decay leaves the pulp exposed, a pulpotomy, which is the partial removal of pulp, is done instead.

Indirect Pulp Caps

The following things are controlled and must be declared because they may need to be inspected or certified by the country from which they came.

  • Removing decay : The dentist will take out most of the decayed tooth, but will leave a small amount to protect the pulp tissue.
  • Adding sedative material : Like direct pulp capping, a protective layer of sedative material is put on the decayed dentin to help it remineralize.
  • Filling the cavity : The dentist will then put in a temporary filling that will last until your next appointment.
  • Evaluating the progress : After six to eight weeks, the dentist will take out the temporary filling to see how well the wound is healing. In many cases, the decayed dentin has grown back, and any decay that is still there is removed.
  • Providing permanent restoration : Finally, a permanent filling is put in the tooth to make it stronger and let the person bite and chew normally.
