This position statement on the management of deep caries and exposed pulp represents consensus an expert committee, convened by European Society Endodontology (ESE). Preserving in a healthy state with sustained vitality, preventing apical periodontitis developing minimally invasive biologically based therapies are key themes within contemporary clinical endodontics. The aim this was to summarize current best evidence diagnosis classification caries-induced pulpal disease, as well indicating...

Deep caries presents a dilemma in terms of which treatment that will render an optimal prognosis by maintaining pulp vitality with absence apical pathology. Previously, 2 randomized clinical trials were performed testing the short-term effects stepwise carious tissue removal versus nonselective to hard dentin or without exposure. The aim this article was report 5-y outcome on these previously treated patients having radiographically well-defined lesions extending into pulpal quarter but...
