GRADUATE ENDODONTOLOGY
CLASSIC LITERATURE REVIEW SEMINAR
PULPAL RESPONSE TO CARIES, AGING, PROCEDURES, AND MATERIALS
Fall 2007

By the completion of the seminar each resident should:

• Be familiar with the hydrodynamic theory of pain.
• Be familiar with the etiologies of pain associated with different materials.
• Be familiar with the mechanism of bacterial caused inflammation.
• Be familiar with the general changes seen in the pulp due to aging.
• Be able to integrate the findings in this section in your diagnosis and treatment planning.
