Q: How do you describe the inflammatory process occurring in the pulp of teeth?For example: When preparing a crown for a tooth the pulp gets irritated. This causes infiltration of neutrophils (acute inflammation). Since no bacteria are present, the neutrophils quickly die. If the tooth is later exposed to bacteria, the response includes infiltration of lymphocytes and plasma cells (chronic inflammation). Is this correct?
