Abstract

Aim The objective of this study is to determine differences between EPT results for the same teeth with the operator’s hands being gloved and ungloved.
Material and method Electric pulp tests were conducted for the same teeth with the operator’s hands being gloved and ungloved. Twenty male and twenty female patients were included in this study.
Results Statistically significant differences between EPT results for the same teeth with the operator’s hands being gloved and ungloved were observed.
Conclusion In conclusion, the clinician should not use the EPT while wearing examination gloves.
