A case report of successful apexification in mandibular second molar, using cold ceramics”

Nowadays, in the treatment of necrotic teeth with open apex, based on the availability of bioceramic biomaterials with the ability of calcified tissue induction on cement and bone and periodontal ligament repairment stimulation using these materials has become more acceptable than the traditional calcium hydroxide apexification method. Cold ceramic is one of these bioceramics that in previous studies has shown successful results in the treatment of apexification.

Case Report:

 This article was a report of a successful case of apexification with cold ceramic and 10-months follow up of second mandibular molar tooth of a 14-year-old girl. In 10-month-old follow up, the tooth was asymptomatic and the periapical lesion healed after 10 months.

: It seems that cold ceramic could be used as a desirable material in the treatment of apexification and to strengthen the regeneration of periapical tissue.
