Volume Assessment of the Periapical Healing Following Regenerative Endodontic Procedures Using Cone- Bean Computed Tomography

November 25, 2020 updated by: Noha Mohamed El Kateb, Alexandria University

3 D Volume Assessment of the Periapical Healing Following Regenerative Endodontic Procedures Using Cone- Bean Computed Tomography

3D volume assessment was done to evaluate the periapical healing following REPs in mature teeth.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

REPs were done for 10 mature maxillary necrotic teeth with periapical lesions confirmed by digital periapical radiographs. Instrumentation was done using Protaper Next till size X3 (size 30). Pre-operative radiographs also included CBCT scans to measure the 3D volume and area of the periapical lesion to be used as baseline data. The postoperative radiographic examination included: a) digital periapical radiographs taken at 3,6,9, and 12 months to monitor the lesion through out the follow-up period. b)CBCT scan to measure quantitatively the volume and area of the periapical lesion after 12 months follow up

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: X3 group
REPs was done for 10 mature maxillary necrotic teeth with periapical lesions. Instrumentation was done using Protaper Next system till size X3. Irrigation with 1.5 % NaOCl was done in the first visit. in the second visit, bleeding was induced in the canal by irritating the periapical area followed by the application of Biodentine as cervical plug then completion of the coronal restoration.
