Abstract

Objective: To identify the technologies used in pulp therapy for primary teeth and how they optimize dental treatment for child patients. Methodology: Integrative review of the literature carried out through a search in the electronic databases PubMed and Scielo. using the descriptors “primary teeth”, “endodontic treatment”, “rotary instrumentation”, “apical locator”. Articles from systematic reviews and/or randomized clinical trials were selected, in English and Portuguese, published between 2018 and 2023. Results: 14 studies were included at the end of the search. The mechanized system showed faster treatment, with a lower rate of postoperative pain and more efficient cleaning of root canals. The use of the apex locator optimized the patient's chair time and brought more comfort to pediatric dental care. Conclusion: The use of the apex locator and mechanized instruments in Endodontics of primary teeth provides a reduction in treatment time and greater comfort for the child patient.
