Pulpectomy procedure for deciduous teeth with severe pulpal necrosis.

Pulpectomies of deciduous teeth with severe pulpal necrosis should be considered as a possible treatment plan. Systemic and dental criteria have been devised to help the clinician to select cases in which successful results may be produced. A clinical success occurs when the pulpectomized tooth is painless, is firm in its alveolar socket, and is without a fistulous tract. Radiographically, any radiolucent area should be resolving with six months, and no pathologic root resorption should be observed. Research should determine whether pulpectomies may be done on children with severe systemic disease and should determine long-term consequences of underfilled and overfilled pulpectomies.
