Abstract

When immature permanent teeth become non-vital, the prognosis of the teeth is compromised. Disinfection and obturation of root canals with open apices can be challenging. Revascularization is a useful tool for the treatment of permanent teeth with necrosed pulp and open apex. Clinically, Revascularization procedures consist of disinfection by intra-canal medicaments followed by inducing blood clot in the root canal or implantation of autologous fibrin matrices like PRP/PRF. Such procedures may improve prognosis of necrosed teeth with open apices. Existing studies indicate that regenerative procedures lead to increase in length and wall thickness of radicular dentin. This article presents a case series of three cases where revascularization procedures were successfully carried out.
