Official Title: Outcome of Regenerative Endodontic Procedures for Necrotic Immature Permanent Teeth, Using Two Different Protocols: A Prospective Randomized Clinical Study.
Brief Summary:
Clinical management of immature non-vital (necrotic) permanent teeth is challenging, due to inherent structural weakness. Earlier management of such teeth relied on the traditional calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) apexification procedure or the application of apical barriers However, neither procedure allows for promoting root dentin maturation. In 2004, a novel management technique for treating immature, non-vital teeth called regenerative endodontic procedures (REP; also known as revascularization) was introduced.…
