ABSTRACT
Regenerative endodontic treatment is an alternative approach for immature necrotic permanent teeth. This method, is based on disinfection of the root canal system and periapical region without damaging the existing cells. The aim is to assist in the formation of new tissue within the canal after the stem cells are transported to the root canal and to induce further root development. Studies on Stem cells, signalling molecules and scaffold which is triad of regenerative endodontic treatments concept are increasing nowadays thanks to intensive progress of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. This review outlines the clinical protocols currently used and studies in regenerative endodontic procedures.
Keywords: Regenerative endodontic treatment, stem cells, scaffold, calcium hydroxide, immature teeth and pulp necrosis.
