Is Revascularization the Treatment of Choice for Traumatized Necrotic Immature Teeth? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Regenerative endodontic treatment (RET) has been considered a reliable procedure to treat immature necrotic teeth; however, the effect of dental trauma on the prognosis of RET is questionable. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the current level of evidence for revascularization techniques (the RET) in the management of traumatized necrotic immature permanent teeth with or without periapical radiolucent areas. Four electronic databases-PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase-were searched until November 2022.
