ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the outcome of apexogenesis with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) in traumatised anterior and carious posterior teeth over 5 years. A comprehensive chart review was performed to obtain a retrospective of sequential previously completed cases with recalls. Clinical and radiographic data were collected for 97 vital immature teeth (40 traumatised anterior and 57 carious posterior teeth) pulpotomised (partial or full pulpotomy) using MTA with an average follow-up time of 5 years. Chi-squared test and Fisher's exact test were implemented to analyse data. The success rate in anterior teeth and posterior teeth was 82.5% and 96.4% respectively. Crown discolouration was observed in 25 (62.5%) anterior teeth. There was a significant difference between the number of successful and unsuccessful cases (P < 0.05) and there was no correlation between type of treatment and success/failure (P > 0.05). The success rate of apexogenesis using MTA in immature teeth was relatively high.
