Abstract : Endodontic intervention in necrotic immature permanent teeth often presents a clinical challenge. However, with careful case selection, regenerative treatment can be an effective approach, yielding favorable outcomes. Nevertheless, there is currently no consensus on the optimal disinfection protocol or the method to achieve predictable clinical results in regenerative treatment. One of the advantages of regenerative endodontic treatment is its potential to stimulate further root development. In cases where regenerative treatment fails, conventional methods such as MTA apexification can be considered as an alternative treatment option. This article presents a case report of regenerative endodontic treatment in necrotic immature tooth #21, along with a 24-month follow-up review, showcasing the outcomes of the treatment.

Keywords : Regeneration; Endodontics; Dental Pulp Necrosis; Stem Cells.
