With changes in the age structure and oral health in the population, changes in the pulpo‐dentinal complex are becoming more relevant clinically. Age‐related changes in the structure of dentine and pulp are reviewed. The influence of these changes on restorative dentistry are considered with particular emphasis on endodontics and the use of adhesive restorative materials.
