Bioactive Closure of Non Vital Immature Tooth with Open Apices - A Contemporary Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Non vital immature teeth with open apex and thin dentinal walls are difficult to treat via conventional endodontic therapy. Calcium hydroxide has been conventionally used in such cases for a long time. However, due to its various shortcomings, MTA (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate) became the material of choice. A new bioactive dentin replacement material, Biodentine, can act as an ideal dentin substitute in such cases. This case report presents the use of Biodentine as an obturating, reinforcing and apexification material to restore traumatized teeth and re-establish patient’s aesthetics.

Vital pulp therapy with two different calcium-silicate cements: two cases report
It is a worthy aim to preserve the pulp vitality in teeth with immature root in order to continue the root's maturation. Traumatic injuries and caries are two main reasons for pulp exposure in immature teeth. This article describes two vital pulp therapies on two patients, a nine-year-old boy with traumatized central tooth and a 10-year-old boy with caries exposure in a premolar tooth. Both tee...

External inflammatory root resorption (EIR) represents a challenge in endodontic practice. EIR commonly occurs after dental trauma that results in periodontal ligament injury, pulp necrosis and subsequent infection. Treatment of EIR is based on disinfecting the root canal system through chemomechanical procedures and then filling it with calcium hydroxide or triple antibiotic paste. Dental tra...
متن کاملPost-traumatic apexogenesis of immature non-vital permanent incisors.
Injury to an immature permanent tooth may result in cessation of dentin deposition and root maturation leaving an open root apex and thin dentinal walls that are prone to fracture. Endodontic treatment is often complicated and protracted with an uncertain prognosis frequently resulting in pre-mature tooth loss. There are several advantages of promoting apexogenesis in immature teeth with open a...

Treatment of a non vital tooth with necrotic pulp and immature apex is a great challenge to the clinician. In obturation for gutta-percha condensation, there should be an apical barrier to avoid extrusion of cements and gutta-percha into the apical area leading to periapical trauma. Apexification is a method which is used for treatment of such tooth with open apex. It is defined as “a method to...

Mucosal fenestration is a clinical condition where tooth root apices are visible in the oral cavity due to loss of overlying alveolar bone and mucosa. Mucosal fenestration mostly affect maxillary incisors. The present case series reports two cases where patient reported with complaint of unesthetic appearance because of exposed roots of maxillary anterior teeth which on radiographic examination...
