Continuing root formation following apexification treatment

Dental Traumatology, 1990
Abstract A case report is presented in which continuing root formation occurred in an immature mandibular second premolar after calcium hydroxide apexification treatment. An apical hard tissue barrier was accompanied by a separate disto‐apically growing root 18 months posttreatment.

Perforation repair and one-step apexification procedures [PDF]

Dental Clinics of North America, 2004
As with any dental treatment, procedural mishaps can occur during root canal therapy. One such occurrence is the perforation of a root or pulpal floor. After a perforation occurs, the goals are to "sterilize" (decontaminate) the site and then seal the perforation.

Some unusual cases of apexification subsequent to trauma

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1975
Three cases are reported in which apexification occurred without the benefit of endodontic treatment. These reports illustrate that immature teeth which are avulsed and replanted, dislocated and repositioned, or traumatized with pulp necrosis supervening, may progress to form complete apices without intracanal therapy.

Organic iodine: a substitute for BaSO4 in apexification procedures

Journal of Endodontics, 1983
Diatrizoate compounds are apparently more radiopaque and resorbable than BaSO 4 when combined with Ca(OH) 2 . Use of the soluble organic iodine prevents radiographical obscuration of the apical region during and after apexification. The solution also supplies a medium with which to mix the Ca(OH) 2 powder.

Apexification during active orthodontic movement

Journal of Endodontics, 1986
A case is presented in which the ability of apexification procedures to induce a calcific barrier in a tooth undergoing active orthodontic movement is demonstrated. The calcific barrier is formed in the midst of the apparent ongoing appositional and resorptive processes that are occurring in the area of the tooth movement.

Apexification in a Nonvital Tooth by Control of Infection

The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1980
Incomplete formation of roots in permanent dentition because of death of the pulps is fairly common. Various pastes are used in apexification procedures. It has been suggested that minimum mechanical intervention and removal of infection alone may be sufficient. A case is reported in which this was observed.

Strengthening immature teeth during and after apexification

Journal of Endodontics, 1998
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the strengthening effect of an internal resin bonding technique. One hundred central incisors were endodontically treated and divided equally into five groups. Group 1, without any cervical preparation and with access repaired with bonded resin, served as the positive control.

MTA Apexification Combined With Conventional Root Canal Retreatment

Australian Endodontic Journal, 2003
ABSTRACTApexiflcation aims to induce apical closure of the open root apex with a hard‐tissue barrier, against which a root filling can be compacted. Despite the popularity of the apexification procedure, calcium hydroxide therapy has some disadvantages that include variability of treatment time, unpredictability of apical closure, difficulties with ...

Apexogenesis, Apexification, Revascularization and Endodontic Regeneration

2016
Apexogenesis is a vital pulp therapy procedure to encourage continued root development and maturation with normal root thickness. Apexification is an endodontic procedure that aims to either induce a hard tissue barrier in a tooth with an open apex or the continued apical development of an incomplete root in teeth with apical periodontitis ...

Combined apexification and orthodontic extrusion of a hypoplastic permanent canine.

Journal of dentistry for children (Chicago, Ill.), 2008
Localized infection in the primary teeth was reported as an etiological factor in the formation of a hypoplastic defect in the underlying permanent teeth. The purpose of this report is to present the case of a 10-year-old girl with an unusual local hypoplasia in the mandibular left permanent canine and emphasize the importance of multidisciplinary ...
