This report presents a case of a completely intrusive luxation of an immature permanent central incisor in a 7 years 9 months-old girl. Because there are severe intrusive trauma and cortical alveolar bone fracture, it was impossible to reposition with orthodontic or surgical method alone. The intruded tooth was repositioned to healthy alveolar bone level by using surgical extrusion and stabiliz...

Objective: The objective of this report was to present a case of apexification in traumatized teeth treated with two different therapies for immature teeth. Methods: An 11-year-old male patient was referred to the Dental Trauma Service of the College of Dentistry — Piracicaba (UNICAMP), with enamel dentin fracture in the maxillary central incisors associated with subluxation caused by a bicycle...

Rmoval of abscessed primary teeth has been sug;ested because they have been shown in some tudies to create developmental defects with underlying permanent successors.' However there might be a rationale for attempting pulp therapy in some carefully selected cases, i.e., abscessed incisor prior to eruption of primary cuspids, as space closure may occur. In necrotic immature teeth, the wide and f...

Introduction. Tooth avulsion in the young permanent dentition is a frequent finding, and its prognosis depends on the treatment of the avulsed tooth before replantation, the extra-alveolar time, the storage medium, and the patient's general health. The present report describes management of an immature avulsed lower central incisor 90 minutes after the accident. Methods. A right lower central i...

this article describes successful use of calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement and biodentine in apexogenesis treatment in two 8-year-old patients, one with immature permanent molar diagnosed primarily with irreversible pulpitis and the other with partially vital maxillary central incisor. after access cavity preparation, partial pulpotomy in molar and full pulpotomy in central was performed, a...

We investigated the effects of both cytokines and extracellular matrices on the proliferation and differentiation of immature adult rat incisor dental pulp cells. These immature cells, which have a high-proliferative potency in vitro and do not express mRNAs for dentin non-collagenous proteins such as dentin sialoprotein (DSP), bone sialoprotein (BSP), and osteocalcin, exist in the root regions...

INTRODUCTION In this study, we evaluated root and alveolar bone development in unilateral osseous impacted immature maxillary central incisors by cone-beam computed tomography before and after closed-eruption treatment, in comparison with naturally erupted contralateral immature maxillary central incisors. METHODS AND RESULTS The study included 30 patients, 20 boys and 10 girls, with a mean a...

This study describes the treatment of a necrotic immature permanent central incisor with crown fracture. Instead of the conventional root canal treatment, a regenerative approach based on conservative endodontic method for revascularization was provided. The root canal was gently debrided of necrotic tissue by irrigating with sodium hypochlorite and then medicated with tri-antibiotic paste. Aft...
