Abstract
Background: Management of the immature non vital anterior tooth with apical pathosis represent several treatment challenges. Lack of apical closure complicates the root filling procedure and the attainment of an apical ?seal?(Shah et al., 2008; Cehreli et al., 2011). The goal from pulp revascularization is to regenerate a pulp-dentine complex that restores functional properties of this tissue and allow continued root development for immature teeth (Hargreaves et al., 2008).
Objective: The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate and demonstrate comprehensive data about pulp revascularization and mineral trioxide aggregate apexification in treating necrotic immature teeth. Method: An extensive search was performed on PubMed, Cochrane Library, and EBSCO. The assessed primary outcome was resolution of clinical symptoms. The secondary outcome was root development. Result: Three articles of clinical trials met the inclusion criteria and were included. For patients who have necrotic immature permanent teeth, pulp revascularization is more effective in furthering root development of necrotic immature permanent teeth compared to MTA apexification
