[Consequences of dental restorative treatment (and of the dental materials used in its execution) on pulp tissue].
Pulp tissue may suffer from carious invasion, direct or indirect trauma and last but not least from dental treatment. As the general population grows older and retains longer its dentition, teeth will inevitably experience a complex history of multiple episodes of aggressions. It is therefore not surprising that the dental practitioner is confronted more and more with teeth reacting acutely or chronically (in other words, painfully or not) after proper dental treatment. This paper describes the common pathologic and iatrogenic events that may have an effect on the pulpal health status. Preventive endodontic treatment is to be considered in cases of extensive dental treatment.
