What is Pulp Therapy?

Pulp therapy, often referred to as a “baby root canal,” is a dental treatment designed to save and restore a severely decayed or infected primary tooth’s pulp (the innermost part of the tooth). This treatment aims to maintain the tooth’s health and function until it’s time for the permanent tooth to erupt.

4 Benefits of Pulp Therapy

 

1.

Save the Tooth

Pulp therapy can save a decayed or infected primary tooth from extraction, preserving the natural space for the permanent tooth.

2.

Relieve Pain

By treating the underlying infection or decay, pulp therapy can alleviate pain and discomfort.

3.

Prevent Spread of Infection

Pulp therapy prevents the infection from spreading to other teeth or adjacent tissues.

4.

Promotes a Healthy Smile

Maintaining healthy primary teeth is essential for proper chewing, speech development, and setting the foundation for a lifetime of good oral health.

 
 
 
The pulp is a bustling hub of nerves, blood vessels, and vital cells that keep your little one’s smile radiant and healthy.
 
 
 
 

Types of Pulp Therapy

 

There are two types of pulp therapy we offer that can restore the function of the tooth.

 

Pulpotomy: This involves removing the infected pulp from the crown portion of the tooth while leaving the healthy pulp in the root intact. A restorative crown is then placed on the tooth to protect it from further damage.

 

Pulpectomy: In more severe cases, the entire pulp, including the root canal, may need to be removed to eliminate the infection. A restorative crown is then placed on the tooth to protect it from further damage.
