Electric pulp testing is most reliable, though it uses nerve stimulation.
Cold tests are indicative of a vital pulp, but do not indicate the normality of it. they are preffered in full coverage crown cases.
Ethyl chloride is usually used.
Any other input or anyhting else we should know under this topic?

1 acts on cyclo oxygenase pathway,acts on cns
2.is not an antiplatelet ,can be given to children with viral infec,no danger of reyes disease.[aspirin causes it]
