Abstract

In today′s pediatric stomatology, the pulp treatment philosophy of both deciduous teeth and young permanent teeth tends to be more conservative, that is, to achieve the goal of curing the affected teeth with the preservation of the vital pulp or root pulp as far as possible. The change of this concept cannot be separated from the development of oral materials. For example, MTA has been widely used in the treatment of children′s dental pulp due to its good performance and clinical effect, but it also has some inevitable disadvantages in terms of operability and aesthetics. New bioceramics, such as iRoot BP and Biodentine, have ideal physical and chemical properties and biocompatibility, and perfectly solve some shortcomings of the original bioceramics. They can be used in indirect pulp therapy, direct pulp capping, pulpotomy, and pulp reconstruction for deciduous teeth and young permanent teeth. The characteristics of new bioceramics and its application in children dental pulp treatment are reviewed in this paper. Key words: Tooth, deciduous; Dentition, permanent; Bioceramics; Vital pulp therapy; Revascularization
