Pulp therapy aims to sustain the teeth where pulp tissue is affected by caries dental trauma or other causes in a functional state.

In endodontic therapy of primary teeth due to the tortuous and complex character of root canals and the change in their morphology with root resorption ‘biomechanical preparation’ is restricted only to debridement of the root canals.
