The use of an objective test such as pulse oximetry (PO<\/jats:styled-content>) could be a more reliable method to properly evaluate pulp status in this condition. The aim of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of PO<\/jats:styled-content> in determining pulp vitality in traumatized teeth based on oxygen saturation measurements (%SpO2<\/jats:sub>).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Subjects and methods<\/jats:title>Fifty\u2010nine permanent teeth that had undergone lateral luxation, and which were unresponsive to a cold spray test and were free from signs of necrosis, were selected and tested with PO<\/jats:styled-content> at 7, 30 and 60 days after trauma.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results<\/jats:title>Fifty\u2010nine teeth were tested. At 7 days after trauma, 8 teeth had low rates of oxygenation, compared to 10 at 30 and 60 days. Low rates were defined as a saturation reading \u226477%SpO2<\/jats:sub>. These teeth were assigned to the pulp necrosis (PN<\/jats:styled-content>) group. The other 49 teeth were either considered to have healthy pulps (HP<\/jats:styled-content>) (saturation \u226590%SpO2<\/jats:sub>) or were assigned to a pulpitis (PP<\/jats:styled-content>) group (saturation \u226578 to \u226489%SpO2<\/jats:sub>). The 10 non\u2010responsive teeth were followed up for 1 year and all exhibited indications for endodontic treatment. The other 49 teeth (HP<\/jats:styled-content> or PP<\/jats:styled-content>) began to show positive responses to the cold spray (after 3\u20139 months of follow up). No significant differences (P<\/jats:italic> < 0.05) were detected between the three periods analyzed, but %SpO2<\/jats:sub> rates were significantly different (P<\/jats:italic> < 0.01) between the groups (HP<\/jats:styled-content> vs PP<\/jats:styled-content>, HP<\/jats:styled-content> vs PN<\/jats:styled-content> and PP<\/jats:styled-content> vs PN<\/jats:styled-content>).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusions<\/jats:title>PO<\/jats:styled-content> can be extremely useful for the assessment of dental pulp status in traumatized teeth, particularly when these teeth do not show signs of PN<\/jats:styled-content> and do not respond to cold tests.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/edt.12279","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,5,3]],"date-time":"2016-05-03T12:35:52Z","timestamp":1462278952000},"page":"385-389","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":33,"title":["Pulse oximetry: a useful test for evaluating pulp vitality in traumatized teeth"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"32","author":[{"given":"Celso Luiz","family":"Caldeira","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Dentistry University of S\u00e3o Paulo Sao Paulo Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fernando Branco","family":"Barletta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Dentistry Lutheran University of Brazil Canoas Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mariana Cezar","family":"Ilha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Dentistry Lutheran University of Brazil Canoas Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carmen Vianna","family":"Abr\u00e3o","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Dentistry University of S\u00e3o Paulo Sao Paulo Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giulio","family":"Gavini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Dentistry University of S\u00e3o Paulo Sao Paulo Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,5,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-9657.1986.tb00118.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2014.08.009"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.17796\/jcpd.26.2.2j25008jg6u86236"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2591.1993.tb00567.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2007.01.014"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/edt.12074"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2591.2004.00815.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.bdj.4807873"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2014.04.011"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2011.05.038"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2012.03.027"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-9657.1985.tb00583.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/edt.12215"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2012.11.047"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.joen.2012.06.012"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-9657.2011.00976.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2591.2008.01421.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_19_1","first-page":"125","article-title":"Pulse oximetry evaluation of vitality in primary and immature permanent teeth","volume":"21","author":"Goho C","year":"1999","journal-title":"Pediatr Dent"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_20_1","first-page":"225","article-title":"Pulse oximetry: a diagnostic instrument in pulpal vitality testing.
