Abstract:
The dentin-pulp complex is sensitive to infection. Restorative treatment should function as a Band-Aid protecting the dentin-pulp complex from bacteria and their byproducts. This article describes different ways of treating the exposed dentin-pulp complex in such a way that bacterial infection can be avoided.
