Filter by:This study is to evaluate the effectiveness of regenerative endodontics therapy in single-rooted permanent teeth with pulp necrosis,and compare the clinical efficacy of platelet rich fibrin (PRF) and blood clot (BC) as scaffolds.
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of the use of apical matrix, with Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) or calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2 Apexification on apical healing and calcific barrier formation of immature teeth with non- vital pulp.
the objective of this study is to evaluate post operative pain after using Endosequence versus Mineral Trioxide Aggregate as coronal plug material in revascularization of non vital immature anterior teeth
This study aims to compare regenerative endodontics for necrotic young permanent anterior teeth using oral photo-activated disinfection versus triple antibiotic paste in terms of: 1. Clinical success in terms of absence of any complication such as spontaneous pain, sinus or swelling. 2. Radiographic success in terms of healing of periapical radiolucency or increase root thickness, length or apical closure.
This study evaluates success rate of non vital mature anterior teeth with periapical lesion treated by regenerative endodontic protocol in single visit versus two visit technique. Patients are randomized into two groups where treatment will be done either in one visit including access, disinfection, placing platelet rich plasma as scaffold and restoration or two visit protocol involving access, disinfection and placing calcium hydroxide as intracanal medicament in first visit followed by a second visit after 3 weeks involving reopening of the tooth, removing intracanal medicament and placing platelet rich plasma as scaffold then restoration. Success rate is defined as absence of subjective signs and symptoms along with healing of periapical lesion
the object of this study is to evaluate clinically and radiographically the effect of using Biodentine and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate as coronal plug materials in revascularization of non-vital immature teeth
This multi-center exploratory clinical trial is a randomized trial designed to test whether a regenerative endodontic procedure using tissue engineering principles (REGENDO), or a revascularization (REVASC) endodontic procedure, in comparison to standard apexification treatment using a mineral trioxide aggregate barrier (apexification; APEX), produces a significantly better composite clinical outcome for the treatment of immature permanent teeth with pulpal necrosis.
Children often damage their front teeth. In approximately 6% of cases, the nerve inside the affected tooth dies (becomes 'non-vital') and natural root development stops. In these cases, the tooth requires a root canal treatment in order to prevent problems such as pain and dental abscesses from arising. However, because the roots of these young teeth are not fully formed, they are weaker and prone to fracture. In addition, root canal treatment is difficult because a root canal filling cannot be placed in a tooth which is not yet fully formed, due to the fact that the root has an 'open' end. To enable root canal treatment to be carried out, a 'barrier' must be placed at the end of the 'open' root. This can be done using materials called Calcium Hydroxide or Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA). These materials are placed inside the root and sealed into the tooth. However, although they help to provide a barrier, they do not help to strengthen the walls of the root. Treatment with these materials requires multiple visits to the dentist, over a period of up to 18 months. There is evidence to suggest that an alternative treatment involving 'revascularisation' (recovery of the blood supply to the tooth) and the use of a triple antibiotic paste allows 'natural' root growth to restart, and also strengthens the walls of the root. Treatment can often be carried out in just two visits. The aim of this study is to discover whether there is a difference between one of two methods of treating non-vital teeth with open ends. It is thought that there will be no significant differences seen between the results of the two techniques. Children with teeth that fall into this category and require root canal treatment will be given one of two treatments, both of which aim to treat infection, close the root end and to allow healing to take place. Teeth will receive one of the following methods of root treatment: 1. Revascularisation (recovery of the natural blood supply to the tooth) following placement of an antibiotic paste into the tooth root. The aim of this treatment is to allow 'natural' root growth to restart. Root growth will allow the tooth to form at barrier at the end of the root. No root canal filling will then be necessary. 2. Closure of the open root end by placement of an artificial barrier at the end of the root so that a root canal filling can then be placed. This will be done with a dental material called Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA). Non-vital teeth with an open end are routinely treated in this way at Liverpool Dental Hospital.
The purpose of the investigators study is to characterize the composition of the hard and soft tissues present in root canals of teeth previously diagnosed with necrotic pulps and incomplete root formation and treated with a triple antibiotic regeneration protocol. The investigators hypothesis is that treatment of teeth with necrotic pulps and immature apices with triple antibiotic paste will stimulate continued root formation by the deposition of dentin at the root apices. The primary outcome measure will be histological identification of mineralized tissue and adherent cells in the apical third of these teeth.
The purpose of this study is to determine the treatment outcomes in permanent teeth with necrotic pulp and immature root development that undergo a regenerative procedure using a triple antibiotic paste (ciprofloxacin, metronidazole, minocycline) versus a double antibiotic paste (ciprofloxacin, metronidazole)compared to the commonly used mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) apexification treatment.
