Different Treatment Modality in Necrotic Primary Molars

Necrotic primary molars in preschool children will be treated with the regeneration concept to provide a healthy biological environment within the root canal system and regression in clinical signs and symptoms which are the primary outcomes of regeneration treatment.

About this study

A convenient sample of preschool children have a necrotic primary second molar randomly allocated to one of the 3 study groups which are: group A (control) treated by the conventional treatment ( pulpectomy followed by stainless steel crown SSC), group B: treated by regeneration using triple antibiotic paste followed by SSC), group 3:(treated by regeneration using calcium hydroxide with iodoform(metapex) followed by SSC.

the 3 groups were evaluated at baseline, 6 months and 12 months for clinical and radiographic success.

Treatment and study plan

pulp regeneration for necrotic primary teeth

Other

a pulp regeneration procedure will be applied for necrotic primary teeth with different intracanal medication compared to conventional pulpectomy used in treatment for necrotic primary teeth

Other names: different treatment options for necrotic primary teeth

Primary outcomes

  1. number of patients treated in the 3 groups and have a clinical success according to the checklist absence of pain, pain on percussion, mobility, clinical abscess or fistula

    Time frame: 12 months

    the blind outcome assessor will evaluate the clinical success at 6 and 12 years

  2. number of patients treated in the 3 groups and have a radio graphic success according to the checklist absence of radiolucency, internal or external root resorption

    Time frame: 12 months

    the blind outcome assessor will evaluate the radio graphic success at 6 and 12 years
