Abstract: Young permanent teeth are not fully developed due to their short eruption,characterized by a relatively large pulp cavity,high and pointed pulp horns,and open apical foramina.Due to caries,abnormal tooth development or trauma,the dental pulp may be damaged or infected,which may lead to pulp necrosis and directly affect the normal tooth root formation.Therefore,the treatment of dental pulp disease in young permanent teeth poses a huge clinical challenge.The goal of clinical treatment is to promote continued root development of the affected tooth,thicken the root canal walls,and close the api-cal foramina.This article reviews the treatment options for reversible and irreversible pulpitis caused by pulp exposure,aiming to provide a reference for the treatment of pulp lesions in young permanent teeth,focusing on preserving healthy pulp and pro-moting pulp repair and regeneration.
