Abstract | ||
Aim of the Study: The aim of this study was to assess the influence of using EMD as a scaffold in pulp revascularization as compared to the conventional MTA revascularization. Patients and Methods: 30 patients with immature necrotic permanent anterior were selected and enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups, group A was treated using EMD and MTA plug scaffold while group B was treated using conventional MTA plug and blood clot. Clinical evaluation as well as radiographic assessment of apical constriction diameter for both groups were done at 3-, 6-, 9- and 12-months intervals. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups at the end of the whole follow up period. Conclusion: The use of EMD with MTA in pulp regeneration has no better effect in increasing the apical diameter than the use of MTA alone.
