ABSTRACT

Treatment of immature teeth with necrotic pulp is a difficult procedure because of difficulty in obtaining fluid tight seal with normal root canal treatment. Revascularization may be considered as a treatment option in such teeth because of the stem cells present inside may help in closure of open apex by differentiating into cells required for root formation. Methods: 35 patients with history of trauma to upper front teeth were included in the study. For pulp regeneration procedure, bleeding was induced in canal and was allowed to clot over 15 min period to a level 3mm below CEJ coronally and was sealed off with MTA. Patients were followed up for period of 09 months to observe changes in pulp sensibility, increase in root length and increase in dentinal wall thickness. The obtained data was statistically analyzed. Results: There was significant increase in root length and dentinal wall thickness after the procedure. Conclusion: The results conclude that pulp regeneration procedure may be considered as a treatment option for patients with immature apices following trauma.
