COMPLEX PULP THERAPY
Apexication Risks andComplications
• Apexification has been successfully achieved
using Ca(OH)2. Nevertheless, this procedure has
several shortcomings. Ca(OH)2 apexification is
associated with a high frequency of cervical root
fractures (Cvek 1992; Andreason etal. 2006;
Rosenberg etal. 2007). The frequency of
fractures among immature teeth ranged from
77% in teeth with the least developed roots to
28% in teeth with the most developed roots. This
is probably attributed to its hygroscopic and
proteolytic properties which lead to desiccation
of the dentin
The formation of an apical barrier may take
•
between three and 24 months, and requires
cooperation of the treated child and his or her
parents. An alternative approach is a one visit
Self‐Study Questions
apexification which uses an artificial barrier placed
at the apical portion of the canal, and enables the
immediate obturation of the root canal with
gutta‐percha. However, it has been reported that
the MTA used for one visit apexification may have
the same weakening effect as Ca(OH)
(Duggal etal. 2017). Another disadvantage of the
MTA is crown discoloration. This may be overcome
by the use of Biodentine or EndoSequence (Huang
2009; Marconyak etal. 2016)
• Revascularization may be an alternative to
apexification. This technique enables not only apical
closure, but also elongation and thickening of the
dentinal walls (Huang 2009). Although the results
of this procedure are promising they are not
predictable and further studies are needed (Banchs
and Trope 2004; Chen etal. 2012; Galler2016)

Self‐Study Answers
1. The central incisor typically erupts at seven years
of age and its root is completed three years later.
Considering the fact that the trauma occurred nine
months prior to the time she was referred to
treatment (around age nine), the stage of root
development is reasonable
2. Copious irrigation is performed carefully so as
tonot pass solutions beyond the apex and to
avoidthe risk of a cytotoxic effect on periapical
tissues

Dental Exam
• Minimal plaque
• Caries free
• First permanent molars with amalgam restorations
• The maxillary right permanent central incisor had a
temporary filling covering the lingual surface access
I. Diagnostic Tools
• Periapical radiograph of the maxillary right
permanent central incisor (Figure3.8.2) showed
temporary filling, wide root canal with thin walls,
immature tooth with open apex, round radiolucent
periapical area (Figure3.8.2, arrow) surrounded by a
radiopaque zone
• Clinical examination showed: temporary filling; 2 mm
pocket; physiologic mobility; no sensitivity to
percussion, electric pulp test (EPT) and cold test; slight
tenderness on palpation; no sinus tract; no swelling
J. Differential Diagnosis
• Remnants of the dental sac
• Periapical true cyst
• Non‐odontogenic lesion
K. Diagnosis andProblem List
Diagnosis
• Immature tooth with asymptomatic apical
periodontitis
Figure 3.8.2 Periapical radiograph of the maxillary right
permanent central incisor (arrow at radiolucent area).
Problem List
Difficult to establish correct working length in
•
immature teeth
• Risky to file a tooth with thin root canal walls
• Obturation of a tooth with wide open apex may result
in overfilling
• Cold test and EPT are unreliable in immature teeth
• Difficult to differentiate between the radiographic
appearance of a dental sac and chronic apical
periodontitis
BACKGROUND INFORMATION 1
Mineral Trioxide Aggregate
• Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is a powder that
consists of hydrophilic particles which set in the
presence of moisture; it reacts with tissue fluids to
form a hard tissue apical barrier
• MTA is the first restorative material that
consistently allows overgrowth of cementum and
itmay facilitate the regeneration of the
periodontalligament (Torabinejad etal. 1997;
Schwartz etal. 1999)
• The use of MTA requires only one or two visits to
complete the apexification, depending on the type
of MTA used (Duggal etal. 2017)
122 Clinical Cases inPediatric Dentistry
• A drawback to the use of MTA is the potential to
cause coronal discoloration of the crown. However,
there are alternative materials that can be used for
an apical plug, especially when esthetics is a
concern. Bioceramic materials, such as Biodentine®
or EndoSequence™, stain the teeth to a lesser
extent than MTA and are also osteoconductive
(Cheng etal. 2010; Mozynska etal. 2017). In
addition, an apical matrix can be placed in order to
limit the extension of the apical plug beyond the
borders of the root canals (Yadav etal. 2015)
• Obturation of the root canal can be performed with
a vertical condensation of warm gutta‐percha in the
remainder of the canal
t.me/Dr_Mouayyad_AlbtousH

L. Comprehensive Treatment Plan
https://t.me/medicina_free
• Explain to the parents the difficulties in treating an
immature permanent tooth
• Establish an apical barrier with MTA, followed by RCT
and the final restoration
• Follow‐up care should include:
Immediate postoperative and home care instructions
after each appointment
Recall after one year, followed by yearly clinical and
radiographic examination for five years
Dental Treatment
• First appointment:
Local anesthesia, rubber dam, and removal of the
temporary filling
Working length established using a radiograph in
conjunction with the paper point method
Copious irrigation with 0.5% chlorhexidine, followed
by minimal mechanical instrumentation of the root
canal walls and additional irrigation with ultrasonic
activation
Because there was no apical stop, a Ca(OH)2 paste
was placed using a syringe with a small‐gauge
needle, followed by an intermediate restorative
material temporary filling
• Second appointment, two weeks later:
Copious irrigation with 0.5% chlorhexidine
Apical barrier created with MTA
Wet paper point and wet cotton pellet placed over
the MTA plug followed by a temporary filling
(Figure3.8.3)
COMPLEX PULP THERAPY
Figure 3.8.4 Radiograph showing obturation of the root canal.
Third appointment, one week later:
•
Setting of the MTA plug verified
Root canal space irrigated with 0.5% chlorhexidine
and dried
Canal was obturated with warm injectable gutta‐
percha (Figure3.8.4)
Coronal access sealed with temporary restoration
Patient referred back to dentist for final restoration
M. Clinical andRadiographic Follow‐Up
• The tooth is asymptomatic and functional 12 months
postoperatively (Figure3.8.5). The size of the periapical radiolucency diminished; full healing is expected

FUNDAMENTAL POINT 1
Calcium Hydroxide vs. Mineral Trioxide
Aggregate
• In comparison to Ca(OH)2 apexification, apical
closure with MTA is more predictable along with
reduction in treatment time, number of
appointments, and radiographs. The tooth can
be restored with minimal delay, preventing the
risk of root fracture and reinfection. There is a
growing body of evidence to suggest the
recommendation of MTA, instead of Ca(OH)2,
for apexification in traumatized anterior teeth
(Duggal 2017)
N. Prognosis andDiscussion
• Due to their thin dentinal walls, these teeth are prone
to fracture. Therefore, a mouth guard is suggested to
decrease the risk of injury in risky situations (sports,
biking, etc.). Nonetheless, the parents and the patient
should bear in mind that this tooth may be lost in the
future
O.
Common Complications andAlternative
Treatment Plans
Common Complications
• After apexification, the immature root is short and the
crown : root ratio is not favorable. Post placement
(ifneeded) is difficult due to the size and irregular
shape of the root canal, and placement of a permanent
crown should be delayed due to the patient’s
continuous growth and maturing of the gingival tissues
Alternative Treatment Plans
• Apexification with Ca(OH)
2
• Revascularization may be considered as another
option, especially when the root canal walls are very
thin, and the tooth is in an earlier stage of
development. The procedure involves two steps, the
initial step is disinfection of the root canal using a triple
antibiotic paste. In the second step, bleeding is
induced from the apical tissues and allowed to fill the
root canal in order to serve as a scaffold for stem cells,
which will enable the continued maturation of the root
(Banchs and Trope 2004; Diogenes and Ruparel 2017).
Although results are promising for revascularization of
traumatized necrotic immature teeth, root maturation
may still be inconsistent (Saoudetal. 2014)

Self‐Study Answers
1. Immature teeth have a wide‐open apex;
therefore, it is impossible to seal the root canal
without overfilling beyond the apex. Furthermore, if
filled with Ca(OH)2 these teeth are more prone to
fracture
2. The exact position of the biologic apex in teeth
with a blunderbuss apex is not apparent. It is
advisable to use a paper point to measure the exact
length of the root canal. Bleeding at the end of the
paper point or a wet paper point indicates
overextension

However, in cases of VRF the most common
symptoms are swelling, sinus tract, and a local
narrow periodontal pocket. Because these symptoms
were not found, the most probable diagnosis is
asymptomatic apical periodontitis
FUNDAMENTAL POINT 1
Denitions
• Asymptomatic apical periodontitis: inflammation
and destruction of apical periodontium that
isofpulpal origin, appears as an apical
radiolucentarea, and does not produce
clinicalsymptoms
• VRF: a fracture in the root whereby the fractured
segments are incompletely separated; it may
occur buccal‐lingually or mesial‐distally; it
maycause an isolated periodontal defect(s) or
sinus tract; it may or may not be radiographically
evident
(American Association of Endodontists, 2015)
