access to the root canals,
remove as much dead &
infected material as possible
& fill the root canals with a
suitable material to maintain

Complete/Total
Pulpectomy:
It is the extirpation of normal
or diseased pulp to or near
the apical foramen .
Partial
Pulpectomy:
It is the extirpation of normal
or diseased pulp of tooth with
an incompletely formed root
& an open apex.
www.FourthMolar.com
Historical Perspective:

Sweet has described a 4-5 step


technique using formocresol for
the treatment of pulpless teeth
with & without fistula.
Hobson has described a
pulpectomy technique for necrotic
primary teeth in which the canals
www.FourthMolar.com
were not debrided.
Indications:

Irreversible inflammation
extending to the radicular pulp

Primary teeth with necrotic


pulp

Pulpless primary teeth without


permanent
Pulpless successors
primary teeth with
sinus tracts
Primary teeth with evidence
of furcation pathology

Pulpless primary 2nd molars before
eruption of permanent
Pulpless primary 1st molar
teeth in
hemophiliacs
Presence of
an abscess
Pulpless primary teeth next
to the line of palatal cleft
Pulpless primary molars
supporting orthodontic
Pulpless primary teeth when space
appliances
maintainers or continued
supervision are not feasible

Contra-
indications :
Teeth with non-
restorable crowns

Pathologic resorption of at
least 1/3rd of the root with a
fistulous sinus tract
Peri-radicular involvement extending
to the permanent tooth bud
Extensive pulp floor
opening into the
bifurcation www.FourthMolar.com

dentigerous or follicular cysts

Treatment
Objectives:
To maintain the tooth free of
infection
To bio-mechanically clean &
obturate the root canals
To promote physiological root

Treatment
Considerations:
GENERAL
CONSIDERATIONS
The patient should be healthy & co-operative.
Informed consent, with a clear explanation of the
procedure to the parents, must be obtained.
DENTAL
CONSIDERATION
The teeth must be restorable after the root canal
S
treatment.
Chronologic & dental age must be evaluated to rule
out teeth with eminent exfoliation.
Psychological or cometic factors must be considered.
The number of teeth to be treated & strategic
importance to the developing occlusion must be
evaluated.

Nearly ideal material for filling primary root canals

Is well tolerated by the adjacent periapical tissue
without any inflammation & with deposition of

IODOFORM (KRI) PASTE
Resorbs rapidly & has no undesirable effects
on succedaneous teeth
Material extruded into periapical tissue is
rapidly replaced by normal tissue
Has superior antimicrobial action
Does not set into hard mass & can be
removed if re-treatment is required
