Study and Application of Vital Pulp Therapy in Mature Permanent Teeth

doi:10.13701/j.cnki.kqyxyj.2023.04.003

Abstract

Abstract: Maintaining vitality of the pulp is of great significance to the long-term preservation of mature permanent teeth. In recent years, supported by the studies of pulp biology, minimally invasive treatment of pulp and preservation of remaining healthy pulp have become the new target employed for mature permanent teeth with pulpitis. The primary aim of this review was to elaborate the research and application of vital pulp therapy (VPT) in mature permanent teeth in terms of classification, treatment, prognosis, and application of laser.

Key words: vital pulp therapy, mature permanent teeth, pulpitis, dental pulp capping, low-level laser therapy
