- Abstract
- Regenerative endodontic procedure (REP) is a treatment option to replace damaged pulp tissue with the viable tissue which restores the normal function of the pulp-dentin complex. Possible reason for doing REP is not clearly known, however, clinicians perform REP in order to recover the histological structure as well as function of the traumatized and diseased tooth so that this tooth can restore its original root shape and thickness. This REP can be explained by the concept of revascularization or revitalization after induction of blood clot formation in the canal space. For this purpose, several treatment strategies have been suggested. In this regard, the rationale for the application of triantibiotics, calcium hydroxide or mineral trioxide aggregate is discussed in this paper. As a result, we will try to find the best method for REP by reviewing each available technique and their advantages and disadvantages.
