Vital Pulp Therapy, a Highly Effective Treatment – Testimonial & case report by Jenner Argueta D.D.S. – M.Sc.

This article highlights the growing popularity of conservative approaches to treating pulp damage, particularly vital pulp therapy (VPT), as an alternative to root canal therapy. Patients often opt for early tooth extraction due to the costs involved in root canal treatment and restoration. However, advancements in treatment protocols and understanding of biological processes have led to increased success rates in VPT procedures, making them a viable option. The complexity of diagnosing pulp inflammation, especially determining if it’s reversible, poses a challenge due to limitations in current diagnostic tests and subjective factors. Despite this, VPT remains a promising option for preserving the pulp-dentin complex.
