Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / October 2008Could fresh blood be used as a cavity lining on exposed roots?
I've read freshly drawn blood being used to treat dry socket. > I've read freshly drawn blood being used to treat dry socket. Your question does not match your header. The answer (if I understand you, which is doubtful) is no and no. Steve  SignatureMark & Steven Bornfeld DDS http://www.dentaltwins.com Brooklyn, NY 718-258-5001 Blood patches have long been used in anaesthesiology. www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1238256 Never heard of it being used in dentistry.

I have some exposed roots that sometimes have bled a little then healed pink then white forming tertiary dentin. >> Blood patches have long been used in anaesthesiology. >> [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > I have some exposed roots that sometimes have bled a little then > healed pink then white forming tertiary dentin.

Then I found out about adult stem cells in the pulp http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18499892 On Aug 29, 3:19 pm, adn...@live.co.uk wrote: > > <adn...@live.co.uk> wrote in message > [quoted text clipped - 24 lines] > > - Show quoted text - I think part of the confusion is that I should swap the phrase "exposed roots" for "exposed bits of pulp". So it should read "Could fresh blood be used as a cavity lining on exposed bits of pulp?" I think I might have got confused when i found a web page on exposed roots and thought that must be my condition because I've had difficulty finding a web page which mentions exposed bits of pulps. Although I remember one person mentioning he felt he needed *root canal* because his tooth was bleeding, so I presumed that's a hole in the top of this tooth rather than at the side. The phrase "root canal" confuses because its dealing with the pulp which is inside the root. In my case its not a hole on the side of the tooth but the top. A big hole, so big that its exposed bits of pulp.
