A testlet patient has a deep cavity in a lower molar. During caries removal, a small pinpoint pulp exposure occurs. The tooth is vital, asymptomatic, and treatment is completed in one visit with the field kept dry. The BEST management is:
Immediate extraction
Immediate root canal treatment without any trial of pulp capping
Direct pulp cap with MTA or calcium hydroxide, hermetic seal, and review
Leave the exposure untreated with only IRM placement
