Pulpectomy in Primary Teeth

40 CHAPTER

due to the anatomic variations in primary teeth. While the technique is discussed in detail later in this chapter, the significant variations in anatomy and the corre- sponding modifications in the technique are as follows: 1. Primary molar roots are flared out and diverging. It demands a wider access cavity preparation than that in permanent tooth to obtain a straight-line access to the root canals. 2. The roots are mesiodistally flattened. This requires precision during initial endodontic instrumentation to avoid breakage of instruments in the canal. 3. The root canals are slender and tortuous and make extirpation of pulp in toto relatively difficult. This demands meticulous endodontic instrumentation. 4. The apical foramen is relatively larger in diameter when compared to permanent teeth. The length of instrumentation is fixed at 1 mm short of the radiographic apex as compared to 0.5 mm in permanent teeth. This is to prevent instrumentation beyond the apex and expulsion of root canal filling material across the apex. 5. The number of lateral canals ismore in the apical one- third in the permanent tooth. They are more at the furcation area in the primary tooth. So, dentoalveolar abscess and early periodontal bone rarefaction are observed at the furcation (inter-radicular region) in primary molars rather than at the root apices. RATIONALE  A tooth suggested for pulpectomy must have at least two-third of its root length intact. Pulpectomy is indicated in the following cases: 1. Chronic or acute irreversible pulpitis

INTRODUCTION The radical mode of endodontic therapy in primary teeth is indicated when coronal and radicular pulps are irreversibly inflamed or necrosed. The treatment objec- tive is to amputate the pulp in toto or completely remove its fragments to eliminate the purulent focus. This is achieved by pulpectomy, enlargement and cleansing of the root canal system. Pulpectomy implies complete removal of pulp tissue, to the clinically possible extent. Removing pulp tissue from the lateral canal is not pos- sible. Pulpectomy is followed by root canal filling with suitable materials and post-endodontic restoration. The radicular mode of endodontic therapy in pri- mary teeth is different from that of permanent teeth

Growth and development

Figure 11.1  Sociocultural and developmental factors.

Efficient parenting helps children to have a posi- tive attitude towards new situations. Such children are confident and have less baseline anxiety. The baseline anxiety is high in overprotected or overin- dulged children. Children born to women with an increased maternal age or nurtured by a single par- ent can also have high baseline anxiety. These chil- dren are under severe tension and do not have a positive attitude towards treatment. 2. Past medical or dental experience: Sometimes, a child may have encountered an unpleasant medical or dental treatment in the past. Such a child is nega- tive towards receiving any dental treatment. Simi- larly, a painless medical/dental experience makes the child positive of receiving treatment. 3. School environment and peer influences: Children are active, curious and open to views and suggestions. Association with peers in the school environment gives them bountiful sociocultural learning. The peers may narrate their experiences

during medical or dental treatment or express their prejudice towards the situation. This may invoke fear for doctors and make the child frightened at the start of the appointment. A child benefited by school dental health programmes will have a positive approach towards dental treatment. The importance of teeth and oral hygiene might have been taught to the child. 4. Growth and development pattern: Physical growth and the pattern of development are associated with each other. The systemic and local (oral) growth should be maturing in a coherent manner for a child to have a positive behaviour pattern. Some derange- ment in development can leave a negative attitude in the child’s mind. Systemic growth disturbance may lead to retarded physical growth or any illness. Local growth disturbance may cause conditions such as cleft lip and palate. Table 11.3 lists the constituents of growth and associated derangements in the develop- ment pattern.

A single nodule may be carefully removed without much distor- tion of the inner fit. Presence of multiple nodules may necessitate the repeat of the casting. (C) Improper coating of the inner surface of a narrow wax pattern with investment material may result in entrapment of large volume of air. This will result in a large nodule (yellow arrow) of metal blocking the whole inner surface; this nodule is extremely difficult to remove and in this case, the casting will have to be repeated.

Section I * Fundamentals of Dental Materials

Chemical Properties Metals tend to lose electrons easily to form cat- ions. They react with oxygen in the air to form oxides; the time taken may vary. For example, iron takes years to rust while potassium burns in seconds. Transition metals such as iron, copper, zinc, and nickel take much longer to oxidize while noble metals do not react with atmo- spheric oxygen at all. Mechanical Properties These properties are also the result of the crystalline structure and metallic bonds of a metal. Most metals are generally ductile (able to draw into a thin wire) and malleable (able to beat to a thin sheet). This is due to the ability of the layers of atoms to slide against each other into new positions within the same crystal structure without breaking the metallic bond. If a small stress is put on the metal, the layers of atoms will start to roll over each other. When they fall back to their original positions on release of this stress, the metal is said to be elas- tic . This rolling of layers of atoms over each other is hindered by grain boundaries, because here the rows of atoms are not aligned properly. Therefore, the smaller the individual grains, the more the grain boundaries, and hence the harder the metal becomes. Since atoms in the grain boundaries are not in good contact with each other, the metal tends to fracture at these grain boundaries. Hence increasing the number of grain boundaries makes the metal not only harder, but also more brittle. It can be concluded that hardness and brittleness of a metal depend on its grain size . Yield strength is the amount of stress required to produce a pre-established amount of permanent strain (i.e., change in length) of the alloy. Ideally, alloys used in the oral cavity should have tensile yield strengths of more than 300 MPa so that a great deal of stress can be applied before they permanently deform. Modulus of elasticity is the measure of rigidity or stiffness .

Since the distance between the atoms in a crystal lattice is different in the horizontal and vertical directions (depending on their lattice structure; Fig. 5.1 ), the properties may also vary if a single crystal is observed. This directional property principle is followed in the manufacture of microchips for computers. However, in general practice it is not possible to evaluate properties in different directions; hence, the properties of a whole metal or alloy are taken into consideration. So a fine-grained structure is desirable for metals and their alloys to have uniform properties in any direction. Nonuniformity of directional properties is termed anisotropy . Dislocations Metallic crystals are not perfect; they have flaws called dislocations . Grain boundary is a type of dislocation. Dislocations are of several types, but generally all alloweasy deformation of themetal. Fracture of metals occurs when the atomic centers cannot slide over one another freely, because impurities block the flow of dislocations. Hence, all methods that increase the strength of the metals act by controlling the movements of these dislocations. Coring During solidification of an alloy, the last liquid to solidify is the metal with lowest solidus tempera- ture. Hence when an alloy is rapidly cooled, the alloy has core structures, with themetal with high solidus temperature forming the dendrites within these cores. Themicrostructure of the rest of the matrix between these cores consists of metals with lower solidus temperatures.

the help of a burnisher. Thereafter, the wedge and the retainer should be removed carefully, keeping the band in position. The ends of the band (facial and lingual) should be held with the fingers of the two hands and everted in the opposite direction (for example while restoring the distal surface of a mandibular second molar, the ends of the band should be everted towards the mesial surface of the third molar (Fig. 13.16) and the band should then be gently moved occlusally in a shoeshine motion (Fig. 13.17)). The proximal surface at this point should be well-formed, with proper contact evident and minimal carving required (Fig. 13.18), except the possibility to remove a possible small amount of excess amalgam at the proximal facial and lingual margins (at the faciogingival and linguogingival areas) and along the gingival margin. The amal- gam knives are ideal for removing gingival excess, preventing gingival overhangs. They are also ideal for refining embrasure form around the proximal contacts. Checking Occlusion Before discharging the patient, occlusion has to be checked for high points (if any) present on the restoration. For this, articulating papers are used, which are usually blue/green/red in colour. The paper is placed on the arch where the restored tooth is present and the patient is asked to bite on it. If any high points are present on the resto- ration, they will appear more dark in colour (the colour of articulating paper leaves imprints), as compared with the areas on the adjacent teeth. These high points can then be selectively scraped off using a carver. The process is repeated up to the time no high points are seen any more. Finishing and Polishing Finishing and polishing of amalgam is one of the important steps to be performed to ensure the

Aesthetic considerations: The position of the tooth in the arch not only dictates the selection of the restorative material, but also the design of the tooth preparation so as to maximise the aesthetic results of the restora- tion. 4. Preservation of healthy and vital tooth structure: Healthy tooth structure should not be removed unless justified, as tooth structure once removed cannot be put back. 5. Restorative material being used: This guides the outline form, for example the

Patient Positioning (Dental Chair Requirements)

(Fig. 8.2). Some dentists also favour the use of position, which is at 45° to the floor (Fig. 8.3). The angle at which the backrest is positioned is dictated by the tooth to be operated upon. 3. The backrest can be moved in between the procedure as and when required after informing the patient. 4. This movement is usually done by the use of a single button, either in the front panel of the bracket table (Fig. 8.4) or in the foot control of the dental chair.

1. To begin with, the patient should have direct access to the dental chair. The chair should be at a low height and the backrest should be upright so that the patient can sit comfortably (Fig. 8.1). 2. The back of the dental chair should be positioned at about 15° angle (slightly raised above the parallel position) to the floor

1. The size of plaster models is very large as compared to extracted natural teeth or typodont teeth, so a better vision and

Tissue Response to Lasers The light energy from a laser beam can have differ- ent interactions with the target tissue depending on two principal factors: 1. Wavelength of the laser used 2. Optical properties of the target tissue These two variables determine the following responses (Fig. 19.6): ● Reflection . The laser beam reflecting or redi- recting itself away from the tissue surface and having no effect on the target tissue.
