Abstract
To asses clinically and radiographically the effect of using two types of coronal plug materials in revascularization of non-vital immature teeth. A total of 26 necrotic immature permanent anterior teeth were enrolled for pulp revascularization using a double antibiotic mix for root canal disinfection. They were randomly divided into the following based on coronal plug materials used: Biodentine (Group I) and white Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (Group II; n=13). Clinical and radiographic assessments were performed after 3, 6, 9, and 12months. When comparing the overall clinical successes and percentage of increase in root length between the two groups, there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). There was a significant difference in the distribution of discoloration between the two groups. One case was reported in Group I, and seven cases were reported in Group II (P=0.01). Both Biodentine and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate were successful clinically regarding the resolution of signs and symptoms associated with the necrotic teeth.
