Registration Number
NCT03813433
Lead Sponsor
Cairo University
Brief Summary

the objective of this study is to evaluate post operative pain after using Endosequence versus Mineral Trioxide Aggregate as coronal plug material in revascularization of non vital immature anterior teeth

Detailed Description

The treatment of immature young permanent anterior teeth is challenging because in addition of the need of elimination of bacterial infection; the lack of natural apical constriction against which a suitable filling material can be placed is considered the main problem.

In the past many different treatments have been proposed for immature permanent teeth with necrotic pulps such as:Custom fitting of filling materials like gutta percha, Periapical surgeries, apexification. The disadvantages of these treatments are: the compromised Crown/root ratio, possibility of vertical fracture.

Pulp revascularization is dependent on the ability of residual pulp and apical and periodontal stem cells to differentiate. These cells have the ability to generate a highly vascularized and rich living tissue.

MTA was chosen as coronal seal to be placed over the blood clot due its a biocompatibility, bio-inductivity. However, the disadvantages of MTA are: discoloration of the coronal dentine when placed in the canal and the difficult handling properties.

Recently, a new bioceramic material has been introduced to the market, namely, EndoSequence which is bioactive, has antibacterial activity, less cytotoxic effect and similar antimicrobial properties, maintain color stability of the tooth when compared to MTA
