Treatment outcome of regenerative endodontic procedures in mature permanent teeth compared to nonsurgical endodontic treatment: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Regenerative endodontic procedures (REP) have the advantage of restoring root canal's native defense ability by re-establishing vital pulp-like tissue. This review aims to determine the overall clinical and/or radiographic success rate (O) of REP (I) in mature permanent teeth (P) and to compare it (C) with nonsurgical endodontic treatment (NSET).

Inclusion: Randomized clinical trials and single-arm prospective studies evaluating the treatment outcomes of REP in mature permanent teeth.
