Regenerative pulp therapy for immature non-vital tooth: A case report

Abstract

Regenerative Endodontics is a biologically based procedure designed to replace damaged structures such as dentin, root structures and cells of the pulp dentin complex. Regeneration of dental tissue is possible from a variety of pre-existing dental stem cells in a properly disinfected root canal system in presence of suitable growth factors and scaffold medium. Blood clot induced by over-instrumentation within the root canal system act as ideal three dimensional scaffold medium and a rich source of growth factors that favours from stem cell multiplication and differentiation. The present case report presents a case of Regenerative Endodontic Procedure in an eight year old female child with necrosed 11 with radiographic evidence of peri apical radiolucency.
