This course will demonstrate the latest in pulp therapy techniques in primary and permanent teeth and the use of glass ionomer cements as a final restorative material. The discussion of pulp therapy will include Biodentine pulpotomies, Cvek pulpotomies for dental trauma, and indirect pulp caps with glass ionomer cement. The restorative component will discuss new composites and their use in the slot prep.
