A pulpotomy is a dental procedure that involves the removal of the upper portion of the dental pulp (the crown), whilst preserving the vitality of the remaining pulp tissue. At London Dental Specialists, we recommend this procedure when tooth decay or trauma has affected the pulp but hasn't spread to the root canals. It's particularly beneficial for children with damaged primary teeth or young adults with permanent teeth that haven't fully developed their roots.
In a pulpotomy, only the upper portion of the pulp (the crown) is removed. This differs from a pulpectomy, which involves the complete removal of pulp from the entire tooth. At London Dental Specialists, our dentists carefully remove just the infected or inflamed coronal pulp tissue whilst preserving the healthy pulp in the root canals, allowing the tooth to maintain its vitality and continue developing normally.
During a pulpotomy at London Dental Specialists, our dentists carefully remove the affected pulp using specialised techniques:
A partial pulpotomy and a Cvek pulpotomy refer to the same procedure. In this technique, only about 2mm of the pulp below the exposure point is removed, leaving a wound of healthy pulp where a medicament dressing is placed. At London Dental Specialists, we perform Cvek pulpotomies to preserve as much healthy pulp tissue as possible, particularly in young permanent teeth where continued root development is essential.
Partial pulpotomy offers several significant advantages:
At London Dental Specialists, we ensure patient comfort during pulpotomy procedures. The treatment is performed under local anaesthesia, so patients should feel no pain during the procedure. Some mild discomfort might be experienced after the anaesthesia wears off, but this typically subsides within a day or two. We provide appropriate pain management advice and medication recommendations if needed.
With proper care and regular check-ups at London Dental Specialists, a pulpotomy can be highly successful. In primary teeth, a pulpotomy can maintain the tooth until its natural exfoliation. In permanent teeth, the success rate is also high, with many treatments lasting indefinitely when followed by appropriate restoration. We recommend biannual check-ups to monitor the treated tooth and ensure long-term success.
After a pulpotomy at London Dental Specialists, the tooth typically requires a final restoration:
