Integrating Non-surgical Endodontic Therapy With Vital Pulp Therapy as a Promising Approach: A Case Report

Teeth with apical periodontitis and symptomatic irreversible pulpitis are often treated with root canal therapy, which is more invasive. However, vital pulp therapy enables the preservation of radicular pulp following the removal of deteriorated pulp in cases of irreversible pulpitis. With an emphasis on a minimally invasive approach, the case reported here has been treated by integrating non-surgical endodontic therapy with vital pulp therapy. Combining these two methods treats the infection and inflammation while preserving the tooth's vitality, which might result in better treatment outcomes and long-term success.

Abstract

Teeth with apical periodontitis and symptomatic irreversible pulpitis are often treated with root canal therapy, which is more invasive. However, vital pulp therapy enables the preservation of radicular pulp following the removal of deteriorated pulp in cases of irreversible pulpitis. With an emphasis on a minimally invasive approach, the case reported here has been treated by integrating non-surgical endodontic therapy with vital pulp therapy. Combining these two methods treats the infection and inflammation while preserving the tooth's vitality, which might result in better treatment outcomes and long-term success.
