Contemporary Endodontics for Children and Adolescents

From Dentistry Made Simple Dentistry Made Simple

A comprehensive overview of contemporary endodontics for children and adolescents, focusing heavily on diagnosis, pain management, and therapeutic materials for both primary and young permanent teeth. Chapters explore the mechanisms and assessment of dental pain in pediatric patients, alongside behavioral guidance techniques to support complex procedures. A significant portion discusses modern, minimally invasive techniques like Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) and various approaches for deep carious lesion management, such as Selective Caries Removal (SCR). Furthermore, the text examines the use of bioactive ceramics like Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) and Biodentine for vital pulp therapies (pulpotomy and direct pulp capping) and non-vital treatments (pulpectomy and revascularization), concluding with discussions on restorative guidelines and emerging areas like regenerative dentistry and single-cell sequencing to understand pulp biology.
