Vital pulp therapy refers to procedures aimed at preserving the vitality of the pulp tissue when it is exposed and damaged due to caries, trauma, or iatrogenic factors. In addition to maintaining vitality, it often involves the formation of reparative and reactionary dentin, which is considered a criterion for successful treatment. With accurate diagnosis, complete removal of pulp infection using magnification tools, protection and induction of repair with biomaterials, and subsequent sealing with composite resin or ceramic restorative materials to prevent microleakage, the treatment can achieve successful outcomes as documented in the literature. This approach has a success rate comparable to traditional root canal therapy, which involves removing all pulp tissue and extensive debridement, making it a viable option for treating deep, complex caries or crown fractures in modern dentistry.
