Perform revitalisation
For immature permanent teeth (open apex) with pulp necrosis, root development cannot continue. Traditional root canal treatment typically does not address the concern of thin root walls being susceptible to fracture. Pulpal regeneration or revitalization allows stem cells to help the root walls thicken and lengthen over time.(1)

Adequate local anesthesia is critical for patient comfort. Please note that for the 2nd appointment for revitalization/pulpal regeneration, it is not recommended to use a vasoconstrictor (such as epinephrine).
It is critical to disinfect the canal system. We recommend following accepted guidelines. Such guidelines often include avoiding mechanical instrumentation, irrigating with diluted NaOCl, and placing an intracanal filler (such as calcium hydroxide or antibiotic paste).

After inducing a blood clot, a resorbable matrix (such as collagen) may be placed. Then, Biodentine (or Biodentine XP) is placed as a biocompatible dentin replacement. In many cases, the Biodentine will be in contact with the blood clot.
