Pulpotomy in young patients using Biodentine™ XP

Vital pulp therapy aims to preserve the pulp, which performs a plethora of important functions including dentinogeneis, immune cell defense and proprioception. […] It is particularly
important for teeth affected by PEIR because they often have immature root apices and
continued root formation is advantageous.’ – Dr. Kreena Patel
In this case study, Dr. Patel takes full advantage of Biodentine™’s therapeutic and mechanical properties to treat a tooth affected by pre-eruptive intracoronal resorption (PEIR) in a young patient, with the primary aim of maintaining pulpal vitality and tooth integrity.
