Sensory nerve fibers that contain calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) have been shown previously to sprout into inflamed tissue surrounding sites of pulpal injury. The sprouting fibers contain increased CGRP immunoreactivity (IR), and neuropeptide levels increase in the surrounding pulp. We compared denervated and innervated first mandibular molars of rats to determine whether the absence of sensory nerve fibers affected tissue survival and healing after pulp exposure. Significant differences were seen between innervated and denervated teeth six days after occlusal exposure, with more extensive necrosis in the denervated teeth, and less survival of vascular pulp. When exposures were on the side of the crown, there was no significant difference between the innervated and denervated teeth. Both the innervated and denervated teeth had begun to make reparative dentin and osteodentin by six days after tooth injury. This study shows that teeth with sensory denervation had an accelerated loss of pulp tissue following occlusal exposure compared with innervated teeth with similar injury.
