To assess the effectiveness of pulp revascularization procedure in children with external inflammatory root resorption (EIRR) after constant teeth injury.
The study comprised 17 children aged 6-10 years diagnosed with EIRR as a long-term complication of dental trauma in 19 teeth. EIRR was diagnosed with periapical radiographs and CBCT was performed to further assess the pathology extension. Pulp revascularization was carried out in all 19 teeth.
There was no resorption progression in all cases. EIRR areas were substituted by bone. In 10 from 19 teeth with early stages of root development bone or cement-like tissue ingrowth into the root canal was observed radiologically. In cases of severe EIRR this ingrowth may partially compensate for lost tissues which is confirmed by a high percentage (94.7%) of functional teeth during mean follow up time of 38±10 months.
Pulp revascularization is an effective method for retaining teeth with EIRR for a relatively long period of time and allows maintaining alveolar bone volume both due to functional tooth preservation and healing of bone lesions in periapical and resorption areas.
