Visitor asks:
Dear Sir/Madam!
I have a new bridge from the canine to the second molar in the upper jaw. Immediately after placement I felt pain in the back tooth when it was loaded or when chewing. At the examination it was found that the dental pulp had been damaged during preparation of the tooth. Devitalisation was suggested, but I decided against it. I would like to know whether the dental pulp can recover on its own or whether there is another way for the tooth to remain vital?
Thank you for your answer.

Dear Sir/Madam!
If the pulp was exposed to the oral environment, it is almost impossible for the condition to resolve without appropriate root canal treatment.
Have a nice day!
