Dr. Mikaela Hazard is an Iowa-trained endodontist. She practices in Fargo, North Dakota and frequently treats pediatric patients. She joins us today to give an update (and a bit of an oral boards review) on permanent vital and non-vital pulpal therapies. Some of the things we discuss:
- When do you stay out of the pulp vs completing a coronal pulpotomy?
- What is the consensus on using sodium hypochlorite to clean pulp chambers in permanent teeth?
- What bioceramics are endodontists using right now?
- How do you complete an apical barrier/plug in a necrotic, immature tooth?
- What are the key steps to success in regendo procedures?
