Pulpotomies

Pediatric Dentist in West Lebanon, NH

If your child’s dental examination reveals damage or infection in a tooth root, we may recommend a pulpotomy. During a pulpotomy, we remove all diseased or damaged pulp tissue from the tooth. The tooth is then disinfected. Often, a crown is placed over the tooth following treatment to help maintain the structural integrity of the tooth until it is ready to fall out.

Should we determine your child requires a pulpotomy, we will discuss our recommendations with you.
