The dental pulp, essential for tooth vitality, often becomes inflamed when exposed due to caries, fractures, or dislodged restorations. Untreated inflammation can lead to pulpal death, necessitating vital pulp therapies (VPTs) such as pulp capping and pulpotomy. Recent trends favor partial caries removal to avoid overtreatment and preserve pulp health. This shift is illustrated through two cases of young female patients with dislodged restorations and deep caries. Both underwent direct pulp capping using platelet -rich fibrin (PRF) and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), followed by composite restorations. These cases underscore the importance of biocompatible materials like MTA and PRF in maintaining pulp vitality and promoting dental tissue repair.
