Abstract

Endodontic treatments techniques for immature necrotic teeth include: surgical endodontics, apexification, and singlevisit MTA plug. Regenerative endodontic therapy (RET) is a newer concept that involves restoring the pulp-dentin complex in an infected tooth with an open apex. The aims of this paper were to evaluate RET of immature permanent teeth using biological scaffold and the distinctions between them, with a focus on their ease of manipulation and regenerative potential.
