Revasularization of necrotic immature lower premolar : a case report

الملخص EN

Regenerative dentistry is a rapidly growing field, this progress is based on the principles of tissue engineering—namely, the spatial delivery of appropriate cells, scaffolds, and growth factors.

Revascularization technique applies the principles of regenerative dentistry to regain the vitality of immature necrotic teeth.

Revascularization represents a new treatment modality in dealing with immature necrotic teeth, replacing the traditional procedures .In this new treatment modality the problem of thin wall roots with open apex is overcome by maturation of the root.

In this case report, we applied the principles of revascularization to treat a necrotic immature lower premolar , and after one year of follow up the treatment was successful , as the root continued to grow and the apex was closed
