A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial of Regenerative Protocols to Treat Immature Necrotic Teeth
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Endodontic Regeneration for Dental Pulp Necrosis and Disorder of Tooth Development. Completed, enrolled 45 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Both methods tested in this study disinfect the non-vital root canals and induce blood clot formation inside the root canal. One method places calcium hydroxide inside the root canal after disinfection and the blood clot is induced four weeks later. The other method performs disinfection and induction of blood clot in one appointment. The investigators hypothesize that both methods will obtain the same success rate in eliminating infection, increase in root length and canal walls thickness.

Timeline
Interventions
Blood clot formation is induced in the root canal after disinfection. Collagen material is placed over the clot. The canal access is sealed with white MTA and glass ionomer restoration. Permanent restoration is placed 3 months later on top of the MTA.
