Abstract EN
Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is a material that has been used worldwide in several clinical applications, such as apical barriers in teeth with immature apices, repair of root perforations, root-end filling, pulp capping, and pulpotomy.
The purpose of this case report was to describe successful revascularization treatment of an immature mandibular right second premolar with apical periodontitis in a 9-year-old female patient.
After preparing an access cavity without anesthesia, the tooth was isolated using a rubber dam and accessed.
The canal was gently debrided using 5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and 3% hydrogen peroxide irrigant.
And then MTA was packed into the canal.
X-ray photographic examination showed the dentin bridge 5 months after the revascularization procedure.
Thickening of the canal wall and complete apical closure were confirmed 10 months after the treatment.
In this case, MTA showed clinical and radiographic success at revascularization treatment in immature permanent tooth.
The successful outcome of this case suggests that MTA is reliable and effective for endodontic treatment in the pediatric dentistry.
