fa Regenerative Endodontic Treatment of an Immature Permanent Canine Following Infant Oral Mutilation کودکان Pediatric Dentistry پژوهشي Research Extracting primary canine tooth buds is a ritual ceremony that prevails in some African countries. This procedure is considered infant oral mutilation (IOM) and may damage the permanent successor and adjacent primary and permanent teeth, resulting in dysplastic or deformed teeth. The purpose of this report was to describe regenerative endodontic treatment of a permanent mandibular canine with extensive coronal hypoplasia, immature root, and a periapical radiolucency following damage to the permanent canine that was probably a result of infant oral mutilation. Regenerative endodontic treatment was initiated by irrigating the root canal, followed by applying triple antibiotic paste dressing over three weeks and creating a blood clot scaffold covered with mineral trioxide aggregate. A 4-year clinical and radiographic follow-up demonstrated healing of the periapical radiolucency. This treatment may serve as a substitute for traditional apexification with calcium hydroxide or creation of an artificial apical barrier with mineral trioxide aggregate. <hr><p> <strong>Source: </strong>Journal of American Academy of ‍ Pediatric Dentistry</p><p> <a href="http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/aapd/pd/2013/00000035/00000004/art00010" target="_blank"><font color="#0000ff">Full Text</font></a></p> ENDODONTICALLY-TREATED; REGENERATIVE ENDODONTICS; TEETH 0 0 http://idai.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-32-2579&slc_lang=fa&sid=1 Avia Fux Noy 100319475328460012196 100319475328460012196 No Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Hadassah School of Dental Medicine, The Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel Eyal Nuni 100319475328460012197 100319475328460012197 No Department of Pediatric Dentistry, at Hadassah School of Dental Medicine, The Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel Moti Moskovitz motim@md.huji.ac.il 100319475328460012198 100319475328460012198 Yes Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Hadassah School of Dental Medicine, The Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel
