简要总结
In this clinical trial the investigators will evaluate an alternate treatment option, which was developed for teeth with incomplete roots, called Regenerative Endodontic Procedure (REP). This treatment works by harnessing the blood clot formed within the root canal from tissues surrounding the root as a scaffold for stem cells. These cells could help to increase the thickness and length of the root canal walls resulting in root end maturation.
Results from the 50 participants who will receive the REP treatment will be compared with findings with historical data.
详细描述
All participants will be prospectively assigned to the REP treatment group. Results from the treatment group will be compared to historical controls of all subjects treated by Ca(OH)2 or MTA apexification in the last 10 years (2007-2017) at the Boston University Henry M Goldman School of Dental Medicine.
All materials used in this protocol are FDA approved and commercially available for similar applications. This study does not seek a new use or application of any materials, instead recommendations of the American Association of Endodontists (AAE) will be followed to evaluate outcomes associated with the REP compare to the standard of care Ca(OH)2 or MTA apexification.
The overall objective for this research is the elimination of any clinical symptoms and the evidence of bony healing as examined by radiographs.
Other objectives include increased root wall thickness and/or increased root length and positive response to vitality testing, which if achieved, could indicate a more organized vital pulp tissue.

研究组 & 干预措施
REP Group
All participants in this single arm study will receive Regenerative Endodontic Procedure (REP). It regenerates the root tip on recently erupted permanent teeth that did not complete root development due to pulp infection and necrosis by allowing cells to migrate from the surrounding periapical tissue and enter the pulp space. Cells contained within the intentional bleeding create at the root tip help in root completion as well as increasing the thickness of the canal walls over up to two years following the procedure.

结局指标
主要结局
periradicular bone healing
时间窗: 24 months
Bone healing will be determined by calculating the difference in the bone thickness in millimeters comparing baseline to 24 months on radiographs
periradicular bone infection
时间窗: 1-4 weeks after first visit
Assess and document any signs/symptoms of infection at the second visit
次要结局
- tooth root thickness at 12 months(12 months)
- tooth root thickness at 24 months(24 months)
- tooth root length at 12 months(12 months)
- tooth root length at 24 months(24 months)
- tooth vitality at 12 months(12 months)
- tooth vitality at 24 months(24 months)
