Biological Approach to Revitalization in Immature Permanent Teeth: No-instrumentation Technique
Treatment for immature, necrotic permanent teeth is showing a paradigm shift in moving from a non-biological, barrier-creating approach (apexification) to a biological, tissue-regeneration approach. Conventional root canal treatment has a high long-term success rate (over 86%) for mature permanent teeth with irreversible pulpitis, pulp necrosis, or pulp exposure. However, immature permanent teeth present more significant […]
Regenerative endodontics: a case report
Obtaining a proper seal in immature teeth is a difficult task because of the wide apical delta it presents. But regernerative endodontics gives us the chance to create pulp in the root canal out of nothing, using only common materials to ensure that the tooth continue its development in order to support its function and […]
Vital pulp therapy
Endodontic treatment is the most common procedures that performed in daily clinic routine the aim of endodontic therapy is to treat the infectious situation caused by bacteria from carious lesion which reached to the pulp chamber causing necrosis and lesion formation. Since pulp is the most important part of the tooth, in this article we […]
Regenerative endodontics: A Reliable Option
Various regenerative endodontic treatment (RET) protocols have been suggested with differences mainly in the disinfection technique used, intracanal medicaments, scaffold systems, and coronal filling materials. In order to reduce such variability, the American Association of Endodontists (2013) and European Society of Endodontology (2016) developed evidence based recommended protocols. These guidelines helped reduce some of the […]
