Tooth preparation for fixed prosthodontic procedures often induces enough thermal or mechanical stresses on the pulp. The extent of pulpal injury and ability to repair depends on factors like amount of remaining dentin, extent of heat produced, and permeability of dentinal tubules. However, there is no infallible method to predict the pulpal response and so the treatment outcome.
This survey tries to assess the knowledge and perception among dental practitioners on the need for prophylactic endodontic therapy in abutment teeth for fixed partial denture (FPD).
Questionnaire-based survey.
An observational study was then conducted among 303 dental practitioners in the state of Tamil Nadu and 250 participants responded.
Descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression analysis.
The survey further imparts light on the clinical outcomes that help minimize the incidence of biological failure underneath a FPD.
固定义齿修复程序中的牙体预备通常会对牙髓产生足够的热应力或机械应力。牙髓损伤的程度和修复能力取决于诸如剩余牙本质量、产生的热量以及牙本质小管的通透性等因素。然而，没有一种绝对可靠的方法来预测牙髓反应以及治疗结果。
本调查旨在评估牙科医生对固定局部义齿（FPD）基牙预防性牙髓治疗必要性的认识和看法。
基于问卷的调查。
随后在泰米尔纳德邦的303名牙科医生中进行了一项观察性研究，250名参与者做出了回应。
描述性统计和多元线性回归分析。
该调查进一步揭示了有助于将FPD下方生物失败发生率降至最低的临床结果。
