Endodontics in Incomplete Root Formation - Class 1. Basic Concepts. www.ferrariendodontia.com.br Endodontic treatment in teeth with incomplete root formation, performed during the mixed dentition period, has completely different characteristics than that of teeth with a fully formed apex. The dentist must be familiar with these differences, which range from access surgery to the irrigation and preparation phase, and especially the filling and materials and techniques used in this phase. Unlike conventional treatment, endodontics in teeth with incomplete root formation has a more conservative and less invasive approach. It is a field that usually falls between pediatric dentistry and endodontics, with treatment approaches often differing between the two areas of dentistry. This two-part lecture discusses the basic concepts of endodontic treatment for teeth with incomplete root formation, such as the definition and histological characteristics of teeth with incomplete root formation, Nolla's stages, and pulp characteristics in young patients. It also covers diagnostic resources for patients with mixed dentition, such as vitality testing, visual analysis of exposed pulp, and clinical and radiographic examinations. Some materials used in clinical cases are also discussed, such as bioceramic cements and MTA, as well as instruments for their application, fibrin-rich plasma, and laser. The second lecture presents the different treatment modalities based on pulp diagnosis: pulp capping and pulpotomy for vital teeth, and apexification and revascularization for teeth with necrosis. It also discusses the differences between apexification and apexification, depending on the treatment performed. It also presents literature data on the topics covered in the lecture.
