Hi! I'm a dentistry student I have my class II coming up. This is my exam tooth (1st premolar) - I haven't seen the patient yet myself so unfortunately I haven't done a pulp test but it should be vital, would you say that this will extend to the pulp or not? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am worried I will end up having to do an endo! 😭😅 Does the periapical area look sound? The tooth is symptomless.

It does look like it is very close to the pulp. But you can maybe get away with a liner and a filling
