The whole procedure is performed under general anesthesia and under strict radiographic control. It is time-consuming, as each step needs to be performed with meticulous detail to ensure a successful outcome. The outcome of conventional root canal therapy should be monitored [[Intra-Oral Radiography - Small Animal|radiographically]] for 6–12 months postoperatively, then ideally every year thereafter.

A partial pulpectomy and direct pulp capping procedure is indicated for recent tooth crown fractures with pulp exposure in an immature tooth. An immature tooth has a thin [[dentine]] wall and an open apex, allowing a good blood supply to the pulp. Treatment is aimed at maintaining a viable pulp, as this is needed for continued root development. (pic34,35)
