What endodontic treatment options are available for…
Dental trauma questions test protocol-level decisions — splint type, duration, follow-up timing — where one wrong detail means a wrong answer. This exam-level vignette tests your ability to work through clinical details and arrive at the correct management.
A 7-year-old's replanted open-apex incisor is reviewed at 6 weeks. The tooth is tender to percussion. There is a small sinus tract on the labial gingiva. Radiographs show a periapical radiolucency and no evidence of continued root development since replantation. What endodontic treatment options are available for this open-apex tooth with confirmed necrosis?
- A. Only conventional root canal treatment with gutta percha obturation is appropriate here
- B. Root canal treatment, apexification, or pulp space revascularization/revitalization procedures
- C. Only extraction — endodontic treatment on necrotic open-apex teeth is impossible technically
- D. Only apexification with calcium hydroxide — no other technique works on immature teeth
