In children, primary (infant) teeth with deep cavities or trauma can have adverse effects on the pulp and may require treatment similar to root canals. However, because the primary teeth and secondary (adult) teeth have different anatomical structures, the treatment is different and simplified. The pulpotomy is performed and involves removing the pulp from the pulp cavity of the teeth. Put the ointment into the cavity and seal the teeth with the filling.
If necessary, pregnant women can perform root canal therapy. For the safety of the mother and the fetus, the use of lead aprons for the X-ray inspection of the standard protocol is essential. In order to control pain during pregnancy, over-the-counter pain medications are usually limited to acetaminophen (Tylenol). Obstetrician consultation with high-risk women is also important for determining the safest treatment options.
