Pulpal and apical diseases, also commonly known as endodontic diseases, represent significant challenges in the field of dentistry. They involve complex inflammatory and infectious processes that affect the dental pulp and the surrounding periapical tissues. While bacterial infections have traditionally been considered the primary cause of these diseases, recent research suggests that viruses play a substantial, albeit often overlooked, role in the pathogenesis of pulpal and apical diseases. Understanding the interactions between viruses, host immune responses, and bacterial infections within the context of endodontic diseases is essential for improving diagnostic and therapeutic approaches [1].
