Pulp Capping

Dr. Lustman asks us:
I have heard many pro´s and con's for pulp capping. I understand that the mainstream consensus is not pulp cap carious exposures but rather to start endo.

Small mechanical exposures that can be isolated and disinfected can be pulp capped. The most common materials used for pulp capping are Dycal, Vitrebond, MTA and bonded resins. What are other people doing with pulp capping? What is your failure or success rate? Any advice?

Dental Bonding Agents

Dr. Morris asks us:
According to my sales rep, I only need one bonding agent that will do everything I need. Of course my sales rep knows which one that is and the recommendation seems seems to change every year.

How many bonding systems do you have in your practice? Which ones and what do they do? Does anyone out there have only one bonding system and is that suitable for all your needs?
