Abstract
The question about the exact indications and contraindications of vital pulp therapy in permanent teeth never settled down. Because the answer involves multiple factors such as understanding the complex nature of the carious disease, knowing the pathological state inside the pulp, and recognizing the capabilities and the limits of the biomaterials in stimulating repair. This review examines some of the challenges and promises of vital pulp therapy for permanent teeth.
