Why Choose Fremont Pediatric Dental for pulpotomy

What is a Pulpotomy?

A pulpotomy is a common pediatric dental procedure designed to treat tooth decay that has reached the pulp (the inner tissue of the tooth) without affecting the root. This procedure involves removing the infected portion of the pulp while preserving the healthy part to maintain the tooth’s function. As part of our restorative dentistry services, pulpotomies are performed to relieve pain, prevent infection, and save primary teeth, ensuring they can support chewing, speech development, and the alignment of permanent teeth.

At Fremont Pediatric Dental, we use this procedure to treat issues like toothaches and prevent further damage, which could lead to a baby root canal if left untreated. Our pulpotomy treatments also help manage swelling and infections, providing a comfortable and effective solution to protect your child’s oral health while promoting the proper development of their smile.
