Vital Pulp Therapy for Kids’ Immature Teeth

What Is Apexogenesis?

It’s a vital pulp therapy technique where healthy pulp is preserved to stimulate root tip closure and further root formation.

It’s used when young permanent teeth have open roots but the pulp is still partially alive, usually after trauma.

Benefits for Kids

Apexogenesis supports root strengthening, avoids early root canal treatments, and helps maintain natural tooth function and long-term stability.

Materials Used

Dentists use biocompatible materials like MTA (mineral trioxide aggregate) or calcium hydroxide to promote healing and tissue regeneration.

Success Rates

When properly done, apexogenesis shows excellent success rates, allowing continued root growth and preventing tooth loss in young patients.

Follow-Up Care

Regular follow-ups are essential to monitor healing, root development, and address any emerging signs of infection or failure.
