VILCHES CESPEDES, Claudia Esther; GALVEZ MOYA, Maydelis  and  GARCIA, Alexander Jova. Clinical evolution of reversible pulp processes. Medicentro Electrónica [online]. 2020, vol.24, n.2, pp. 392-396.  Epub Apr 01, 2020. ISSN 1029-3043.

Most patients come to the Dental Emergency Department because of the painful symptomatology caused by pulp diseases. The sample of this study was made up of 210 patients who were clinically diagnosed with a transient reversible pulp condition and seen at the dental service of "Marta Abreu de Estévez" University Teaching Polyclinic from January to September 2018. The information was obtained from the history record, the clinical examination and a questionnaire. The sample was characterized according to age and gender; the causative agents were also described. Consideration of these factors can improve professionals' perceptions when making therapeutic decisions, as well as, their prognostic assessments. These actions will help to preserve pulp vitality, decrease the indicator of dental loss and contribute to a better quality of life for patients.
