Reversible Pulpitis

Starting with its origin: reversible pulpitis is a mild inflammation of the dental pulp, the tissue found inside the tooth, which still retains the ability to recover if the cause that triggers it is addressed.

Common symptoms: It is usually noticed as a brief discomfort with cold, heat, or sweet foods, which disappears shortly after the stimulus is removed.

Common causes: It is often associated with early cavities, enamel wear, or irritation following a dental treatment.

Which specialist treats it? The endodontist assesses the state of the pulp and determines whether the tooth can be preserved without major interventions. If you notice fleeting sensitivity that recurs, a timely review with this specialist helps prevent the condition from advancing.
