Abstract

Revamping the blood circulation to facilitate root canal development has been a breakthrough in pulp revascularization. This approach is mainly recommended for teeth with incomplete root formation or open apex , as an alternative to the apexification treatment. Apexification is the introduction of calcium hydroxide paste or Calcium Silicate Cements within the root canal system for a given duration to achieve a physiological barrier . Calcium Hydroxide can potentially weaken the root, attributing to its hygroscopic properties and the proteolytic activities.Therefore this lead to advent of MTA and biodentine with superior handling and sealing properties. Subsequently, there has been a progressive research on choice of treatment modalities that aim to complete maturation of immature teeth.
