Techniques to stimulate apexogenesis in dentistry
Keywords:
APEXOGENESIS, PULPOTOMY, TREATMENT.Abstract
Introduction: apexogenesis is currently used by health professionals to maintain young permanent teeth with exposed but infected vital pulp, which have not yet completed root development, in order to promote natural apical closure.
Objective: to describe crucial definitions of apexogenesis, characteristics and treatment objectives.
Methods: a bibliographic research was carried out, through a search of the following databases in certain articles such as: PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scielo, Redalyc. As a first step, we proceeded to enter a base of articles where we used keywords such as “techniques” “apexogenesis.”
Development: apexogenesis is very useful for maintaining young permanent teeth with exposed but infected vital pulp, which has not yet finished its root development, all with the purpose of promoting apical closure in a natural way. Among the materials most commonly used in apexogenesis procedures are calcium hydroxide Ca (OH)² and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). To start with the apexogenesis technique, the approach area should be anesthetized, absolute isolation with a rubber dam should be used, the inflamed pulp tissue should be removed, bleeding should be controlled, and the exposed pulp should be rinsed with 2,5 % hypochlorite.
Conclusions: professionals can use materials such as calcium hydroxide or added trioxide mineral, and it is necessary for the dentist to previously establish a protocol that clearly defines the technique to be used.
