Topic Description :

Regenerative Endodontics: An Introduction for the General Dentist

Abstract:

The management of immature permanent teeth with pulpal necrosis is challenging because the root canal system is often difficult to debride, and the thin dentinal walls are at increased risk of subsequent cervical fracture. This can be a restorative problem because implants are generally contraindicated in a young patient with a growing craniofacial skeleton. Regenerative endodontic therapy provides an alternative treatment approach that builds on the principles of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. The aim of the therapy is to successfully treat these challenging cases by regenerating functional pulpal tissue utilizing protocols referred to as regenerative endodontic procedures.

Learning Objectives:

  • What is regenerative endodontics?
  • What is tissue engineering?
  • What is the biological basis for regenerative endodontic procedures?
  • What are the steps for regenerative endodontic procedures?
  • Are regenerative endodontic procedures effective?
