Abstract:
Accurate assessment of pulp status is crucial for formulating treatment strategies for affected teeth. Traditional assessment methods include subjective symptoms, clinical examination, and imaging findings, despite their diagnostic accuracy is controversial. In recent years, new technologies such as pulp blood flow testing, pulp inflammation biomarkers and artificial intelligence-assisted diagnosis have been introduced, providing more objective and precise diagnostic tools. This review systematically examines pulp status assessment methods now available, explores their clinical diagnostic effectiveness and limitations, and reviews current pulpitis diagnosis systems to optimize the treatment process for pulp diseases and explore future research directions and technological advancements.
