Apical periodontitis in permanent children's teeth with incomplete root development is a challenge for endodontists to treat. It is important that highly efficient therapeutic methods and biologically valuable therapies be developed to prevent the loss of these teeth. The AIM of the study was to review modern literature on revascularization of non-vital permanent teeth with incomplete root development, and to present a clinical case. The literature review herein reflects the modern concept of revascularization of non-vital permanent teeth with incomplete root development. Clinical protocols are presented on cases with and without the formation of a blood clot. The case study reports the treatment of an immature non-vital permanent tooth using the technique of revascularization that utilises formation of a blood clot and use of a two-component antibiotic paste for disinfection. One year after treatment the clinical and radiological data showed absence of subjective complaints, thickening of the root walls, apical closure and no periapical pathology of the revascularized tooth. Literature data and the favorable outcome of our case allow us to further research the revascularization of immature non-vital permanent teeth.

Apexification is a crucial procedure for achieving apical healing in non-vital teeth with open apices. Traditionally, calcium hydroxide has been used for this purpose, but it has significant drawbacks, including prolonged treatment duration, increased risk of root fracture, and the potential for porous barrier formation. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) has emerged as a superior alternative due to its biocompatibility, faster setting time, and better sealing properties.

Background: Dental trauma can cause damage to the pulp tissue in immature teeth. Revascularization therapy is a possible option in the treatment of non-vital, immature permanent teeth with a history of trauma. The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the radiographic and clinical results of immature teeth with a history of trauma treated by regenerative endodontic procedures and mineral trioxide aggregate apexification techniques.

Article Synopsis
- - This study is a randomized, controlled, double-blinded trial that investigates how different cavity designs (inlay vs. overlay) affect the performance of resin composite restorations in teeth that have undergone endodontic treatment, evaluated over two years using Modified USPHS criteria.
- - A total of 30 participants were divided into two groups, with one receiving restorations without cuspal reduction (inlay) and the other with cuspal reduction (overlay), and various follow-up assessments were conducted at 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months.
- - Results indicated that the overlay design showed superior marginal adaptation and lower rates of discoloration and fractures compared to the inlay design at both the 6 and 12-month marks

A fracture due to trauma in children is one of the most common traumas treated by dentists. Pain, swelling, and aesthetics are some of the most common chief complaints patients report to dental clinics after trauma. The anterior teeth play a significant role in the aesthetics of the patient's smile thus affecting the patient's psychological well-being.
