TREATMENT OF TEETH WITH PULP NECROSIS: USING TISSUE REGENERATION

Abstract

The treatment of teeth with pulp necrosis resulting from tissue regeneration represents a significant advance in modern dentistry, addressing the challenge of restoring dental health in a less invasive manner. Pulp necrosis, often caused by trauma or dental infections, compromises root development and can hinder conventional endodontic treatments. Tissue regeneration emerges from studies as an innovative alternative, aiming to preserve the structural integrity of teeth and avoid invasive procedures such as extractions and prosthetics. The central question is: is tissue regeneration an effective alternative to traditional endodontic treatments for teeth with pulp necrosis? The general objective of the study is to critically analyze the effectiveness of tissue regeneration in this context. The specific objectives include comparing the results of tissue regeneration with conventional endodontic treatments, evaluating the success factors associated with this technique, contextualizing textual regeneration in Brazil and worldwide, and understanding the characteristics of pulp necrosis. The methodology adopted is a comprehensive literature review, using recognized data sources such as LILACS, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The systematic review will include clinical studies, literature reviews, and case reports published throughout the years 2000 through 2024. Tissue regeneration is expected to prove to be an effective alternative to conventional endodontic treatments, especially in young or developing teeth. The expected results, then, include the formation of vital dental tissue within the root canal, recovery of pulp health, and strengthening of the tooth structure.
