Notes: Heat generated by tooth reduction and restoration procedures may be harmful to the pulp. Water spray during those procedures aids in maintaining lowered pulpal temperatures. A device that lowers intrapulpal temperatures has been developed and tested in an animal model. The animal's pulp chamber temperatures were lowered to 15.5°C and 12.4°C and maintained at those temperatures for 20 min. Histological examination disclosed no inflammatory reaction to the testing. Therefore, this device may aid in reducing the trauma of dental preparation procedures as well as other effects of lowered temperature on the biology of the dental pulp.
