    Pulpitis Deep Dive: Pain, Diagnosis & Treatment

    Best quote from Pulpitis Deep Dive: Pain, Diagnosis & Treatment

    “

    The dental pulp is housed in this rigid chamber made of dentin—it's like having soft tissue trapped in a concrete bunker. When inflammation causes swelling, there's literally nowhere for that pressure to go, creating a perfect storm where the swelling cuts off blood supply and creates a vicious cycle of tissue damage.
