Abstract

Paradigm shift in management of infected immature permanent teeth has occurred. The new concept of the treatment includes minimal or no intracanal instrumentation, disinfection with triple antibiotic paste and sealing with mineral trioxide aggregate. This regenerative endodontic treatment promotes differentiation of periradicular stem cells that induce regeneration of vital tissue and continuation of root formation. Thorough disinfection and three-dimensional scaffold are important in this new concept of the treatment. Platelet-rich fibrin has been reported as 'new scaffold' instead of blood clot, which had been used in the past. Triple antibiotics can be used to disinfect the tooth but may lead to complications including discoloration. Three cases of infected immature permanent tooth caused by dens evaginatus fracture are presented. After removal of necrotic pulp and thorough intracanal irrigation, only platelet-rich fibrin was applied to the root canal in the first case. In the other cases, topical antibiotics was used for disinfection and platelet-rich fibrin for scaffold. In all the cases, the opening was sealed with mineral trioxide aggregate. All the cases showed proper healing of inrabony lesion and some lengthening of root. According to these cases, regenerating vital tissue of the infected immature permanent tooth can be achieved with disinfection and application of platelet-rich fibrin.

감염된 미성숙 영구치의 치수치료에 있어 줄기세포의 분화를 유도하는 생활조직의 재생과 지속적인 치근형성을 도모하는 방향으로 패러다임이 전환되고 있는데, 여기에서는 소독, 스캐폴드(scaffold), 그리고 폐쇄가 중요하다. 소독을 위해 triple antibiotics가 널리 사용되고 있으며, 스캐폴드로써 기존의 혈병대신 platelet-rich fibrin의 사용이 보고되었다. 본 증례보고에서는 치외치 파절에 의해 치수가 감염된 미성숙 영구치에서 platelet-rich fibrin을 스캐폴드로써 이용한 치수 재혈관화를 시행하였다. 발수와 근관세척 후 첫 증례에서 국소적 항생제의 적용 없이 platelet-rich fibrin을 단독 사용하였고 두 번째와 세 번째 증례에서는 국소적 항생제 적용 후 platelet-rich fibrin을 적용하였는데 모두 양호한 치유 결과를 얻었다.
