Abstract

Treatment of Ellis class IV fracture has been a great challenge. The following case report describes the management of traumatized upper anterior teeth in different patients using revascularization technique. Revascularization is the procedure which promotes apexogenesis in a young immature non vital tooth with limited instrumentation technique. Mineral trioxide aggregate is documented to create a hermetic seal over the coronal opening of the root canal separating the intra-canal clot containing stem cells from the external environment minimizing risk of infection. Revascularization causes continued root growth similar to natural root growth.
