Evolution of apical formation on immature necrotic permanent teeth.

Abstract

The duration of the apical induction was 8.6 +/- 5.36 months. Increase or lack of growth in the length of the root canal and the type of root end closing was as follows: cementoid tissue (85.72%); osseous tissue (14.28%), with a 100% overall success rate. The evolution of these teeth was monitored over a 2-year period with re-infections occurring in 7.1 percent of the cases.
