Summary
A pediatric dental case successfully treated an immature permanent molar
Area of Science:
- Dentistry
- Pediatric Dentistry
- Endodontics
Background:
- Facial cutaneous sinus tracts from odontogenic infections are frequently misdiagnosed.
- Untreated periapical infections in immature permanent teeth can lead to complications.
Purpose of the Study:
- To report a case of successful apexification in an immature permanent mandibular molar with a periapical lesion and facial sinus tract.
- To evaluate the efficacy of NeoPutty in treating a complex endodontic case in a pediatric patient.
Main Methods:
- Apexification using NeoPutty, a bioactive bioceramic cement, was performed on an 8-year-old girl's immature permanent mandibular first molar.
- The material was chosen for its biocompatibility and antibacterial properties, suitable for open apices and infection.
Main Results:
- Complete healing of the periapical lesion and resolution of the extraoral sinus tract were observed within six months.
- The immature permanent molar was successfully preserved, demonstrating the effectiveness of the apexification procedure.
Conclusions:
- NeoPutty is a viable and effective material for apexification in immature permanent teeth with periapical pathology.
- Successful management of odontogenic sinus tracts in pediatric patients is achievable with appropriate endodontic treatment and biomaterials.

01:22Self-Report Tests of Personality
Self-report inventories are objective personality assessments that use multiple-choice items or numbered scales, typically ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). They are often called Likert scales after Rensis Likert. These inventories are widely used due to their ease of administration and cost-effectiveness. One of the most prominent examples is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), initially developed in the 1940s to assess abnormal personality traits.
