The roots of newly erupted permanent teeth will take up to 3 years before their growth is completed. During this period, the roots are short, root apices are wide open, dentine is relatively thin and the dentine tubules are relatively wide, increasing the permeability of dentine to bacteria. The open apex is associated with excellent pulpal vascularity and the potential for a favourable healing response. Objectives in immature permanent teeth include the development of normal root length, favorable crown/root ratio, and sufficient thickness of dentinal walls, thus enabling teeth to withstand normal function. Diagnosis of the type of pulpal therapy depends on accurate diagnosis, which in role depends on many signs and symptoms such as pain, extent of lesion, mobility, soft tissue, pulp exposure, and radiographs. Thermal and electrical pulp testing are seldom used in the primary dentition because of unreliable results. In the immature permanent tooth, raised response thresholds to electrical stimuli are observed.

______ * Pain is provoked by touch from a dental explorer, fingernail or tooth brush. * Pain disappears when the stimulus is removed. 3.

Irreversible Pulpitis * A pulpal condition, usually caused by deep dental caries or restorations. * Spontaneous pain may occur or be precipitated by thermal or other stimuli. * The pain lasts for minutes to hours. * Radiographs may show periapical changes. 5. Chronic hyperplastic pulpitis Pulp polyp, Hyperplastic granulation tissue. Large exposureReddish, cauliflower-like growth of pulp tissue “Pulp polyp”. Deciduous teeth/ immature permanent teeth.
