- Pulp testing involves attempting to make a determination of
the responsiveness of pulpal sensory neurons. The tests
involve thermal or electrical stimulation of a tooth in order to
obtain a subjective response from the patient, or the tests may
involve a more objective approach using devices that detect the
integrity of the pulpal vasculature. The sensitivity, which is the ability of a test to identify teeth that are diseased, is estimated to be 0.83 for the cold test, 0.86 for heat test and 0.72 for the electric test. Specificity relates to the ability of a test to identify teeth without disease. From the results of the testing, it was found that the cold test had an accuracy of 86%, the electric pulp test 81%, and the heat test 71%.
