Resumen:
Treatment of immature permanent teeth with a necrotic pulp or an
irreversible pulp inflammation have for long been limited to the creation of an apical
calcified barrier to permit a correct apical seal thus arresting the tooth in its
development stage. Revascularization has the potential to stimulate root development
continuation. Objectives: Compare the different protocols available through the
analysis of short and long term outcomes. Materials and methods: Research of
scientific articles was conducted using PubMed for the period 2001 to 2021 using the
following keywords: “pulp revascularization”, “pulp revitalization”. Case Studies
(conducted on humans) from those articles were selected, analysed and organized in
different tables. Results: Over the 142 analysed teeth, apexogenesis was observed in
84.5% of the cases, increase in root length in 50%, increase in root width in 63.4% and
apical closure in 61.3%. Discussion: The etiology for the pathology was mainly trauma
and nearly all the teeth presented with necrosis and periapical affectation. The
protocols used were very different as were the results. It appeared that the successful
outcomes of revascularization were not influenced by the protocols. Conclusion: The
conducted systematic review established the potential of revascularization to promote
increase in root length, increase in root thickness and apical closure. Comparing
several protocols for revascularization and looking at the results did not allow to
deduct the best one. The outcome revealed not to be predictable and not to depend
on the protocol used.
