NCT03045185

Brief Summary

Aim: The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the treatment outcomes of regenerative endodontic technique (RET) for the management of traumatised non-vital immature teeth in children. Methodology: This study aims to recruit 25-30 healthy children with traumatised non-vital immature upper incisors to be treated with bi-antibiotic regenerative endodontic technique. Patients will be reviewed clinically at 3m,6m,9m,12m,2y,and 3 years and radiographically at 3m,9m, 2y,and 3 years. One operator will undertake all treatments, clinical reviews and standardised radiographic exposures. Radiographic analysis will be carried out by two calibrated experienced clinicians. Standardised photographs will be taken at 3m,12m,2y,and 3 years and crown colour changes will be assessed using a standardised validated methodology.

Study Arms (1)

Treatment Group

EXPERIMENTAL

RET using Ciprofloxacin 100mg, and Metronidazole 100mg.

Procedure: RET using Ciprofloxacin 100mg, and Metronidazole 100mg.

Interventions

First Treatment Visit: Tooth isolation, access, pulp extirpation and root canal irrigation with 0.5% sodium hypochlorite. Canal negotiation, canal drying using paper points. Delivery of the Bi antibiotic paste (mixture of Bi antibiotic paste (Ciprofloxacin 100mg and Metronidazole 100mg with sterile water). Sealing tooth access with glass ionomer cement. Second Treatment Visit: Tooth analgesia using plain local analgesics, isolatation and re-access as described above. Irrigation of root canal system using normal saline followed by paper point dying. Initiation of bleeding through insertion of a sterile 23-gauge needle with a length of 2 mm beyond the working length into the periapical tissues. Access sealed using Portland cement, followed by glass ionomer and then composite resin.

Eligibility Criteria

Age6 Years - 16 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients aged 6-16 years of age
  • Patients who are fit and healthy or with an ASA1 or ASA2 medical conditions
  • Patients with cooperation level that would allow treatment under local analgesia
  • Patients with a traumatised permanent incisors, canines or premolars having at least one of the following:
  • Necrotic or partially necrotic root canal systems.
  • Periapical periodontitis/abscess.
  • Sinus tract.
  • Patients with permanent incisors, canines or premolars that have incomplete root formation with open apices.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient older than 16 year of age
  • Patients allergic to Ciprofloxacin, Metronidazole.
  • Patients with medical conditions and/or receiving medications that would affect patients' body's ability to heal such as diabetic patients or ability of the patients' blood to clot such as patients with Von Willebrand's disease.
  • Patients with risk of developing infective endocarditis or immune compromised patients.
  • Patients with non traumatised non-vital permanent incisors, canines or premolars where root development already deemed to be completed.
  • No concurrent signs of other pathological root resorption, such as replacement root resorption, which could otherwise affect the prognosis of the tooth.
  • Uncooperative patients.
