Treatment of infected deciduous molars by pulpotomy even in the presence of an abscess. This indication is the only exception to the rule of pulpotomy on vital teeth, and must be treated by regular pulpotomy, without going beyond the floor of the pulp chamber in order Pulpotec never to be introduced in the radicular canal of deciduous teeth. The numerous indications for using Pulpotec in pedodontics, clearly indicate its usefulness in this field.
Directions for usePerform pulpotomy in the usual way. Pulpotec being antisep tic, the use of a rubber dam is optional. Utilise high-speed rotary instruments in order to avoid tearing of the radicular endings and take care to eliminate all the cameral pulp. The use of Pulpotec after a pulpotomy performed with laser is also recommended.
