Abstract:
We carried out clinical and histological investigations on teeth with superficial and deep caries in which we made an artificial exposure of the pulp to check the reactivity of the endodont. After one year we observed using clinical and x-ray methods successful treatment in 93.4% of the teeth. Histologically the number of successful treatment was 100.0% in teeth with superficial caries and 80.0% in teeth with deep caries.
