In this video I have discussed about Electric Pulp Testing, various false positive & false negative results, clinical protocol, various materials used for performing the test and clinical correlation of the test.

What is then the difference between EPT and cold tests since they both stimulate the underlying nerve fibres? How will performing EPT and cold tests help in arriving at a more reliable diagnosis?
Hi Kyriake, the diagnostic accuracy of both these Tests vary and moreover, EPT is not reliable in certain clinical situations such as immature permanent teeth, full-coverage restorations, concussed teeth etc. Usually, the most ideal way of performing a pulp sensibility test is a combination of cold test & EPT.

Theoretically its possible. But clinically no such findings. Moreover, studies have proved that EPT is as reliable as cold testing except in few clinical situations. You can check out a recent live session on the same. Drop a mail @ proudtobedentist@gmail.com for doubts clarifications.
"The narrowest part of the canal is to be found at the 'apical constriction', which then opens out as the apical foramen and exits to one side between 0.5 and 1.0 mm from the anatomical apex." Reference: P. Carrotte. Endodontics: Part 4 Morphology of the root canal system. British Dental Journal 197, 379 - 383 (2004)
Regenerative endodontic treatment can be done on mature permanent root canal treated teeth. If yes then in your known reference can suggest a endodontics clinic or hospital name for doing this treatment please reply me as soon as possible.
Hi Shubham, as far as my knowledge is concerned it can be done successfully in immature teeth or teeth with open apex. Also, I have no idea on where such treatments (Regeneration in mature teeth) are done. Best wishes & love.

Good question Amit. I appreciate your inquisitiveness. Now explore and refer literature and get back through mail (proudtobedentist@gmail.com) using doubt clarification form available in general section of eclasses (eclassesbyptbdacademy.com) via guest log in. Best wishes.
My intention is only to empower you. Rather than passively feeding information for 'your' doubt, I suggest you active learning. So get back through the prescribed format for the same. And let not any reasons hinder your process of active learning. Best wishes.

FALSE POSITIVE- Innocent found guilty i.e tooth is vital but showing it was non vital . FALSE NEGETIVE - innocent verdict for guilty i.e tooth is non vital but shows that it acts as vital .
