ABSTRACT

Objectives: To Compare Pulp Revascularization And Apexification In Immature Non-vital Permanent Incisors Related To Clinical Evaluation.

Materials and Methods: 30 Immature Permanent Incisors Of Children (7-9 Years Old) Had Irreversible Pulpitis Or Necrotic Pulp Were Selected And Randomly Divided Into 2 Groups; Group I: 15 Teeth Were Treated With Pulp Revascularization And Group II: 15 Teeth Were Treated With MTA Apexification. Each Tooth Was Completely Isolated With A Rubber Dam Then Access Opening Was Done. Irrigation Of The Pulp Chamber With 2.5% NaOCl Then Sterile Saline And Water. Then The Root Canal Was Dried With Paper Points And Triple Antibiotic Paste (TAP) Was Applied And It Was Removed By Saline Irrigation After Two Weeks. In Group I (revascularization) Bleeding Enhancement Was Done And MTA Material Was Applied Over The Formed Blood Clot While In Group II (apexification) The Whole Root Canal Space Was Filled With MTA. Finally, Pulp Chamber Was Filled With GIC Filling In Both Groups.

Results: There Were No Statistically Significant Difference Between Groups Regarding Clinical Evaluation Criteria.

Conclusions: Revascularization And MTA Apexification Techniques Resemble In All Clinical Criteria.
