Pulpitis is an inflammation of the dental pulp resulting from untreated caries. trauma, heavy biting forces or multiple restorations. It is characterized by tooth sensitivity that arises from excess blood flow (hyperemia) to the tooth. Pulpitis can occur when caries progresses deeply into the dentin or a tooth requires multiple invasive procedures. Pulpitis is generally divided into two types: reversible and irreversible. The symptoms and signs of reversible pulpitis include sharp sensitivity to cold, sweets and to biting. There is no low-grade ache painful response to stimuli is short-term, swelling is usually a Normally, the tooth can still detect a mild electrical stimulus. As for irreversible pulpitis, it is characterized by prolonged sensitivitv to cold or and sometimes sweets. This tvpe of pulpitis is often

  • sensitivity to cold or heat, and sometimes sweets. This type of pulpitis is often accompanied by a continuous low-grade ache aggravated by these stimuli. Sometimes, swelling may be present So, the nerve tissue is still living but will not stay alive due to the presence of irreversible inflammation in the tooth. The complications of pulpitis generally depend on the type of teeth affected. Actually, pulpitis can result in apical periodontitis, periapical abscess osteomylitis of the jaw, purulent inusitis, meningitis, brain abscess, mediastinitis, pericarditis and empyema. Diagnosis is based

  • on clinical findings and is confirmed by X-ray. Prolonged painful response to stimuli supports a diagnosis of irreversible Irreversible pulpitis requires root canal pulpitis. treatment to alleviate symptoms and arrest the inflammation. Sometimes it is necessary to localize the infection with antibiotics before endodontic treatment. If it is not an option, the tooth may need to be extracted. In reversible pulpitis the pulp is not necrotic and repair requires only drilling and filling as well as the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication.
