- Abstract
- According to the results of the questionnaire survey and the HIRA data released in KAPD conference in 2019, the pulpotomy in primary teeth is gradually decreasing while the one-visit pulpectomy is rapidly increasing. However, these changes seem to be for a more definite prognosis rather than based on academic grounds, and a more accurate diagnosis and conservative approach are needed. In addition, many studies have suggested that MTA pulpotomy was superior to any other materials and which are currently preferred as medicaments for pulpotomy. In the long term period, MTA pulpotomy is expected to be cost effective option.
