[Clinical guidelines for pulp therapies of primary teeth].

Pulpal and periapical diseases are the most prevalent dental conditions damaging the oral health of children in China. In view of China's national condition, the level of diagnosis and treatment for pulpal and periapical diseases of deciduous teeth is uneven and clinically there are inconsistent standards on the selection of operation methods for the endodontic treatment in deciduous teeth. Targeting these problems, the Society of Pediatric Dentistry, Chinese Stomatological Association organized experts from several famous universities and hospitals in China to carry out a panel discussion. The results of domestic and overseas researches and diagnosis and treatment experiences on dental pulp disease and periapical disease of deciduous teeth were also referred to. The present guideline was finally developed for the reference of dental clinicians.
