Resum
Introduction: Primary teeth play an important role in the growth and development of children, so it is necessary to keep them until the moment of their physiological replacement. When there is a pulp involvement that compromises the vitality of the tooth, pulpectomy treatment becomes a challenge for the pediatric dentist due to the complex root anatomy of primary teeth. This review of the literature will present different file systems used in primary teeth and provide an updated look at rotary instrumentation when performing pulpectomies on primary molars. Material and Method: a bibliographic search was carried out in Pubmed and Web of Science according to previously established inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 30 bibliographic references from the last 15 years were selected. Conclusion: pediatric rotary files can be considered safe and more efficient alternatives in performing pulpectomies on primary molars, due to treatment time is reduced, complete debridement of the root canals is produced, and tooth function is maintained until exfoliation.
