Dental pulp acts as a security alarm system for the tooth. For many years different principles and techniques have been employed to preserve the pulp by pulp capping or amputation at various levels or complete removal or extirpation of pulp.While pulpotomy therapy evolved slowly over the first 40 years, the pace of change since the 1960s has continued to accelerate. This book is a review and prospectus of this field, presented in the context of the rationales that have guided development of new and very divergent treatment modalities.
