Active clinical trials for "Dental Pulp Necrosis"

Deep carious lesions will encounter the dentist with the challenge of selecting a treatment method that could avoid the pulpal exposure and maintain the pulp vitality.Conventional restorative treatments suggest complete removal of the caries in one visit which could cause pulpal exposure in 53% of the cases which in next step needs pulpotomy, pulpectomy or Root Canal Therapy (RCT). Stepwise Excavation(SE)is an old concept but has been researched recently to reduce the possibility pulpal exposure during the removal of the lesion. Contrary to Indirect Pulp Capping (IPC), in this technique only the central infected part of the caries is removed in first visit and the rest of the caries will be lined by a suitable material to suppress the remained cariogenic biomass and seal the cavity. This will help the pulp to defend and survive. After a period, the cavity is re-opened and the rest of the caries which is darker, harder and with less bacteria will be removed and the tooth is restored permanently.The aim of this study was to compare the effect of different lining materials in clinical and radiographical symptoms in stepwise excavation without re-enter after one year.

The treatment for immature teeth with pulp necrosis can be carried out through apexification or regenerative endodontics procedures including platelet rich plasma (PRP), platelet rich fibrin (PRF) and injectable PRF, these techniques used alone or in combination. Revascularization therapy carries on more advantages than apexification, such as inducing root-end development and reinforcement. However, apical repair will not happen in the presence of inflamed and infected tissue.the aim of this study is to evaluate the antimicrobial effect of pre-synthesized novel antibiotic loaded electrospun nanofibers used in patients with immature necrotic teeth.

Revitalization of Young Immature Permanent Teeth With Necrotic Pulps Using Autologous Stem Cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth

proper disinfection of root canal system before obturation is a must for long term success of endodontic treatment, therefore a proper irrigant is mandatory, therefore investigators are studying the antibacterial effects of 4 different irrgating solutions in root canal treatment of patients diagnosed with necrotic pulps in their mandibular posterior teeth. patients will be recruited from outpatient clinic of the endodontic department in cairo university. endodontic treatment will be carried out as usual and samples from the infected root canals will be collected before and after preparation to be cultivated and analyzed at the laboratories of microbiology of faculty of medicine, cairo university

• The aim of this study is to compare the degree of postoperative pain and the antimicrobial effect in terms of bacterial count reduction after using co-amoxiclav-clindamycin solution versus MTAD and sodium hypochlorite irrigating solutions in patients with necrotic pulp.

To compare the effect of using Etidronate in sodium hypochlorite versus sodium hypochlorite irrigating solution on: Postoperative pain in patients with necrotic pulp. Bacterial load reduction & main bacterial species detected preinstrumentation and post-instrumentaion Periapical Matrix metalloproteinase 9 level (MMP-9) postinstrumentation and pre-obturation

This study evaluates success rate of non vital mature anterior teeth with periapical lesion treated by regenerative endodontic protocol in single visit versus two visit technique. Patients are randomized into two groups where treatment will be done either in one visit including access, disinfection, placing platelet rich plasma as scaffold and restoration or two visit protocol involving access, disinfection and placing calcium hydroxide as intracanal medicament in first visit followed by a second visit after 3 weeks involving reopening of the tooth, removing intracanal medicament and placing platelet rich plasma as scaffold then restoration. Success rate is defined as absence of subjective signs and symptoms along with healing of periapical lesion

The object of this study is to compare the effect of Calcium Hydroxide and Di-antibiotic paste as intracanal disinfectants in the 1st visit of revascularization of necrotic immature permanent anterior teeth.

Aim of the present study is to assess the in vivo susceptibility of root canal bacteria to Chitosan,Chitosan nanoparticles ,and Chlorhexidine gluconate when used as intra canal medicaments in necrotic primary molars

Injectable platelet-rich fibrin (I-PRF) is a flowable blood concentrate that is entirely natural and allows ease of access and flow within the root canal. It was first developed in 2014 by modifying the centrifugation parameters. I-PRF has great potential in the field of endodontics. At present, it is still in its infancy and needs to be explored with regard to its regenerative efficacy. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to clinically and comparatively investigate Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and I-PRF.
