Regenerative endodontic therapy (RET) of young permanent teeth with necrotic pulps and apical periodontitis in young people, deciduous tooth pulp may be utilized as a natural, biologic scaffold. Recent developments in stem cell biology and material sciences are beneficial for new treatment methods. Previously traumatized and necrotic young permanent tooth was treated with RET protocol.

Materials and methods The antimicrobial activity of the medicaments was assessed by determining the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) via the agar well diffusion method. A total of 40 extracted permanent teeth underwent root canal treatment, and was introduced into the canal preparations.

Background And Aim: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of different endodontic irrigants employed in the lesion sterilization and tissue repair (LSTR) technique.
Methods: Forty children aged 4-8 years having at least one primary molar with irreversible pulpitis/pulpal necrosis indicated for pulpectomy were included. Participants were randomly divided into three test groups (Group A, B, and C) and one control group (Group D).

Background: Audio-analgesia is one of the unexplored aspects of behavior management in pediatric dentistry, and recently, there have been many new inclusions in shades of noise that were previously just limited to white noise, like brown noise and pink noise.
Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of white noise, brown noise, and pink noise on dental anxiety in pediatric patients undergoing primary tooth extraction.
Study Settings And Design: Multiarm, triple-blinded, parallel-group randomized controlled trial.

The successful management of necrotic pulps and apical periodontitis poses a tough challenge in endodontic therapy, as it involves addressing compromised tooth vitality and microbial invasion of root canal systems. Failure to effectively treat these conditions can lead to persistent infection and severe patient discomfort. The efficacy of double antibiotic paste (DAP), a mixture of ciprofloxacin and metronidazole, was evaluated and compared to calcium hydroxide (CH) by assessing radiographic and clinical outcomes of nonsurgical endodontic treatment in cases with necrotic pulps and the presence of apical periodontitis.
