Quality of techniques used to assess clinical outcomes of regenerative endodontic treatment in necrotic mature teeth.

Abstract

Data sources A preliminary, randomised, prospective, controlled clinical trial of patients managed with two regenerative endodontic procedures, revitalisation and a platelet-rich fibrin (PRF)-based technique, in the treatment of mature permanent teeth with necrotic pulps.Study selection Twenty patients with mature necrotic anterior teeth with large periapical lesions treated with the blood clot and a PRF-based techniques for revitalisation. Periradicular healing and pulp sensibility was assessed at 6 and 12 months after treatment.Results Significant periradicular radiographic healing and sensibility was reported at 6 and 12 months.
