Background: With increasing studies being published on regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) as a treatment modality for mature necrotic teeth, the assessment of outcomes following regenerative endodontic procedures has become more challenging and the demand for a better understanding of the regenerated tissues following this treatment is rising. The study aimed to correlate cold, electric pulp testing (EPT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signal intensity (SI) in mature necrotic teeth treated with regenerative endodontic procedures.

Methodology: This retrospective cohort study included eighteen adult patients who experienced tooth necrosis in mature maxillary anterior teeth recruited from the outpatient clinic, Conservative Dentistry Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt from July 2017 until December 2018 with 12 months of follow-up.

Objectives: The current study aimed to investigate the influence of the periapical lesion size on healing outcome following Regenerative Endodontic Procedures (REPs) in mature teeth using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and Mimics software.

Methods: The study included ten mature necrotic maxillary anterior teeth with periapical lesions ≥ 3 CBCT Periapical index score (CBCTPAI). REPs via blood clots were performed for all the teeth.

Introduction: The present study quantitatively assessed tissue regeneration after regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) with 2 different apical preparation sizes in mature teeth using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Methods: Eighteen maxillary anterior mature necrotic teeth with periapical lesions were selected for the study. The teeth were randomly allocated into 2 groups.
