Pulp therapy is a specialized dental procedure aimed at treating dental problems that affect the pulp of a child’s tooth. The pulp is the soft inner tissue that contains nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissue. When the pulp becomes infected or damaged due to tooth decay or trauma, pulp therapy is often recommended to preserve the tooth and alleviate any discomfort.

At Dr. Freeman Pediatric Dentistry, our experienced team of pediatric dentists utilizes the latest techniques and technologies to perform pulp therapy with precision and care. The procedure typically involves removing the affected pulp, cleaning and disinfecting the area, and then sealing it with a protective material. Pulp therapy can help eliminate infection, relieve pain, and promote the healthy development of the tooth.

There are several benefits to choosing pulp therapy for your child. Firstly, it allows us to save the natural tooth, avoiding the need for extraction and potential complications associated with tooth loss at an early age. Secondly, pulp therapy can help preserve the integrity of the tooth, ensuring proper chewing function and maintaining space for permanent teeth to erupt. Lastly, the procedure can provide relief from toothache and discomfort, helping your child regain their oral health and overall well-being.

Our compassionate team understands that visiting the dentist can be intimidating for children. We strive to create a welcoming and comforting environment, ensuring your child feels at ease during their pulp therapy procedure. We take the time to explain the treatment in a child-friendly manner, answering any questions and addressing any concerns.
