- 1Nerve pathway from tooth to cerebral cortex(1) Trigeminal ganglion
(2) Trigeminal nuclear complex
-- convergence of diff. neurons on same 2nd order neuron
(3) Nuclei of thalamus
(4) Cerebral cortex - 2Mechanism of referred pain?Convergence theory - different neurons converge on same 2nd order neuron
- 3Where are C fibers and A delta fibers located in PULP?A delta:
peripheral pulp...extending into dentinal tubule (Pulp-Dentin Junction - plexus of raschkow)
C fiber:
throughout pulp - 4What are the characteristics of C fibers and A delta Fibers?A delta:
- Myelinated, 1-5um diameter, 6-30 m/sec
- sharp, pricking pain w/ low stimulation threshold (hydronamic - drill)
C fiber
- nonmyelinated, 0.4-1 um, 0.5-2m/sec
- burning, aching, throbbing pain
- high stimulation threshold (due to inflammation) - 5What is the hydrodynamic theory?Liquid inside the dentinal tubule will move and stimulate A-delta fibers
Odontoblast and nerve constitute a mechanoreceptor complex that responds to fluid movement - 6What are the pulp nerve changes during inflammation?1. Activate* sleeping nociceptors
2. Injury stimulates nerve sprouting* high expression of calcitonin and substance P
3. Inflammation mediators* sensitize nerve fibers, increasing dental sensitivity
4. Results Hyperalgesia* - increase in perceived magnitude of painful stimulus - 7What is hyperalgesia? Happens as a result of pulp inflammationIncreased perceived magnitude of painful stimulus
1. spontaneous pain
2. decreased pain threshold
3. increased response to painful stimulus - 8What is the effect of inflammation mediators (bradykinin, prostaglandins) on nerve fibers?Sensitize nerve fibers increasing dental sensitivity
- 9Which involves hydrodynamic theory? Drilling, probing, drying, hyper-osmotic, thermal stimulation, percussion, palpation, electric pulp testingEPT, drilling, probing, drying, hyper-osmotic, thermal stimulation
Not percussion or palpation - 10What are the age changes in DENTINReduce in:
- permeability
- size of tubules
- tubules more irregular
Increase in:
+ sclerotic dentin
+ dead tracts - 11What are the age changes in PULP?Reduce in:
- size of pulp & root canal
- cell numbers
- nerves and blood vessels
Increase in
+ collagen bundles
+ calcification
+ coronal pulp stone
+ radicular diffuse calcification - 12SLOB RuleSame Lingual
Opposite Buccal
If buccal roots moved distally, it's a mesial shift - 13What are the 4 zones of histopathologic appearance of apical lesion?(1) Necrotic Zone - necrotic tissue & neutrophils
(2) Exudative Zone - macrophage, T and B cells with fibrovascular element
(3) Granulomatous Zone - tissue repair, fibroblastic activity, new vessels

- Cold test - 20How to use EPT, Endo Ice, CO2 snow to test pulp vitality?(1) EPT - dry, isolate, control tooth and tooth contact, anterior teeth more accurate @ incisal 3rd
(2) Endo Ice (Cold Test) - use 1112 Tetrafluroethane (irreversible/necrotic, constricted canals - false neg.)
(3) CO2 Snow - cold test for tooth with crown - 21Which teeth should be used as control teeth for EPT test?Healthy teeth
- 22When to use test cavity?- When all else is inconclusive, last resort
- Drill small window to the dentin
- Will stimulate a vital pulp and induce painful response when dentin invaded
- Will have no effect when pulp is non-vital/necrotic - 23—


- 24Apical Diagnosis Summary

- 25Which treatment (pulp capping, pulpotomy, pulpectomy) has highest success?Pulpectomy

- 26What are the indications for pulp capping and pulpotomy?Vital Teeth
Pulp Cap :
- small pulp exposures on YOUNG TEETH with open apices and no symptoms
- $ for adult teeth
Pulpotomy
- children w/ open apex & vital root pulp
- adult $, emergency for irreversible pulpitis - 27Why are calcium hydroxide and MTA uesd for pulp capping and pulpotomy?Calcium hydroxide - so pulp tissue can make reparative dentin; has high pH - induces hard tissue deposition and antibacterial properties
- 28What is apexogenes?Vital pulp therapy performed to encourage physiological development and formation of root end
For young teeth with open apices
(capping, pulpotomy, partial pulpotomy) - 29What is purpose of root canal?Remove root canal infection
Prevent and treat apical periodontitis

- Removal of necrotic root canal material
- Removal of infected dentin from root canal walls - 31How to disinfect root canal?Irrigation and intracanal medication
Pure calcium hydroxide - high pH, antibacterial, tissue dissolving
NaOCl and EDTA only, half bacteria gone
NaOCL and EDTA + Antimicrobial Tx → effectively removes bacteria from root canal - 32Why are sodium hydrochlorite, chlorhexidine, and EDTA used for irrigation?• Sodium hypochlorite - (1) antibacterial (2) dissolves pulp tissues (3) lubricate canals ….no chelating effect
• Chlorhexidine - antimicrobial wide range and has *substantivity
EDTA - chelator capable of removing Ca2+ from dentin; remove smear layer (minerals and collagen) on root canal walls to disinfect dentin - 33Why is calcium hydroxide used for root canal medication?Has high pH and antibacterial properties and tissue dissolving abilities
Note: E. faecalis, actinomyces israelii, and candidia albicans resistant - 34What are possible mechanisms of calcium hydroxide for killing bacteria and disinfection?a. Protein denaturation
b. Damage to DNA and cytoplasmic membranes
c. Anti-endotoxin effect
Note: not really effective against E. faecalis and C. albicans - 35What is IKI?• Iodine Potassium Iodide
Effective auxiliary disinfectants; flood entire pulp space; better assurance that all areas of pulp space has been reached by appropriate concentration - 36Gutta Purcha Cone70% Zinc Oxide
20% Gutta Percha
10% Metal sulfates, pigments, wax, and resins - 37ZOE SealersZinc Oxide

- dissolves necrotic and vital pulp tissue
- removes organic components
- neutralizes amino acids
-0.5% concentration - 48EDTA and Citric Acid- Remove smear layer, long exposure = excessive dentin removal
- not really antibacterial**
- Should NOT be used with NaOCl since it causes erosion of dentin - 49ChlorhexidinePlaque prevention and disinfection

NO erosion of dentin. Irrigation after smear layer removed by EDTA or Citric Acid
Attacks microbial cell wall - 50Why don't you use Chlorhexidine with NaOCl?Creates precipitate PCA - carcinogenic

1. Cavit
2. Intermediate Restorative Material
3. Fuji IX (glass ionomer) - 54When do you use Cavit?NOT in vital teeth, it will suck up fluid from dentinal tubules and cause pain
Good sealer, but not as strong and needs moisture to set - 55Intermediate Restorative MaterialZnO + polymetylmethacrylate
Eugenol + Acetic Acid
If pulp is exposed and not enough time, use it - 56What type of temporization do you do in inter-visit endo tx?Ca(OH)2
Cavit

6. Inflammatory Mediators - 59Pulp-Dentin Complex PainHypersensitive teeth
Pulpal Pain - pulpitis
Difficult to localize bc of pulpal nociceptors having high degree of convergence in CNS - 60Pain from periradicular tissueseasier to localize bc many mechanoreceptors in PDL (A beta)
pain decreasing...may be sign infection is getting worse - 61Peripheral Sensitization PainInflammatory mediators sensitize PRIMARY afferent nociceptors
- increased responsiveness and reduced thresholds - little gives pain - 62Central Sensitization painIncreased responsive of nociceptive neurons in CNS to thermal or afferent input below threshold
SECONDARY order neurons become sensitizes
stimuli applied outside the injury in surrounding area; refferred pain
Anti-inflammatory WON'T resolve - 63A beta fibersIn Periradicular Tissues
Palpation and Percussion = positive - 64Pulp Testing: EPT and Cold Tests - activates what fibers?Excites A fibers - shallow stimulation

fibroblasts
macrophage
dendritic
lymphocyte

- 74How to anesthetize: Mandibular anteriors? Maxillary anteriors? Maxlilary molars? If it doesn't work?Mandibular anteriors - mandibular block
Maxillary anteriors - BUCCAL infiltration
Maxillary molars - lingual, buccal, sometimes PSA
Doesn't work - may do PDL or intrapulpal - 75Which type of tooth is hard to anesthetize?Mandibular teeth
Four common mandibular nerve anomalies that lead to local anesthesia failure:
Sensory neurons of mylohyoid nerve
Bifid mandibular nerve
Retromolar foramen
Contralateral innervation - 76Mechanism of intrapulp anesthesia- binds to voltage gated Na ion channels
- 77What is the most missed canal?Mesio-lingual canal of 1st mandibular molar
