Irreversible pulpitis is a serious inflammation of the pulp. Irreversible pulpitis often occurs after reversible pulpitis, and the cause of pulpitis has not been eliminated. Therefore, irreversible pulpitis may be caused by all factors that can cause reversible pulpitis:
If the dentist needs to remove large amounts of dentine, it will become very close to the pulp due to the large cavities.
When the flow of blood to the pulp decreases or disappears. This may be caused by orthodontic treatment, such as a braces, which causes the teeth to move too fast, causing the blood vessels to fail to follow, and the pulp's blood supply to be cut off. It may also be caused by a wound that cuts blood vessels and slowly kills the pulp.
Very deep tusks pass through the enamel and go through the enamel into the pulp. The bacteria then cause inflammation in the pulp. The more the body tries to resist the bacteria, the higher the pressure inside the tooth, until stress can kill the blood vessel and cause the pulp to die.
Symptoms of irreversible pulpitis can range from complete absence of symptoms to unbearable spontaneous pain. Teeth can be very sensitive to the slightest temperature changes, such as breathing in room temperature air. Pain usually lasts. For example, if you eat ice cream and you have pain for more than 5 to 10 seconds after swallowing it, it may be a sign of irreversible pulpitis.
