Abstract

Deep carious lesions are the one in which the caries is closer to the pulp or almost reached the pulp. Any lesion extending more than 2 mm from the DEJ can be considered as deep carious and require special management. The mode of treatment of such lesion depends on the extend of lesion, size of the lesion and the progress of lesion.
