Pulpotomy

Part of our Dental services at Central Clinic.

Pulpotomy is a dental procedure typically performed on a baby (primary) tooth or, in some cases, on a permanent tooth with deep decay or injury. It involves removing the infected or inflamed pulp tissue from the crown portion of the tooth while preserving the healthy pulp in the roots. The treated area is then cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to maintain tooth vitality and function. Pulpotomy helps relieve pain, prevent further infection, and allows the tooth to remain functional until it naturally falls out or is further treated.
