PARTIAL PULPOTOMY (CVEK TECHNIQUE).

The partial pulpotomy (Cvek’s technique)5 . It consists of the clean amputation of the exposed pulp tissue to a depth of 1 to 2 mm within dentin of the pulp chamber. After pulpotomy, the pulpal wound is covered with calcium hydroxide ; then the prepared cavity is sealed with a glass ionomer cement or a composite crown.

If pulp exposure is not more than 2mm,occured within 24 hours,tooth is still asymptomatic no pain etc. and bleeding can be stopped easily then do direct pulp capping with Ca(OH) & review in 1 week,1month & 1 year,

If pulp exposure was more than 2mm,occured more than 24 hours before or if symptomatic or asymptomatic or if bleeding cant be stopped then Vital pulpotomy or Cvek pulpotomy to remove 2 mm of pulp and covered by Ca(OH) or MTA.Restore with GI or Compo & review in 3 months.

Please correct me Adnan

bcoz the pulp is exposed now its open,in contact with the oral environment and we have other pathogens in our oral cavity and to prevent spread of infection removal of 1-2 mm of exposed pulp is required .....i think....

to prevent infection as blood is infection attracting media and we have oppurtunistic pathogens in oral cavity once the pulp is exposed it has to be treated by removal of a part of it followed by placing a suitable medicament .........
