Continuing root formation in immature teeth after calcium hydroxide apexification treatment was observed. A new root structure formed alongside the original root, showing vital pulp tissue and cementum.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Regenerative Endodontics

Background:

  • Immature teeth with open apices present treatment challenges in endodontics.
  • Apexification aims to induce root end closure using apical barriers.

Observation:

  • A case report details continuing root formation in an immature mandibular second premolar post-calcium hydroxide apexification.
  • 18 months after treatment, an apical hard tissue barrier and a distinct, disto-apically growing root were noted.

Findings:

  • Histologic evaluation revealed immature hard tissue, connective tissue, and bone within the original root canal apex.
  • The newly formed root portion exhibited pulp tissue, odontoblasts, predentin, cementum, and an apical foramen.

Implications:

  • This suggests potential for continued root development and regeneration even after apexification procedures.
