Emprego de cimento biocerâmico em dentes jovens traumatizados: relato de caso clínico

Abstract

ABSTRACT: In endodontics there are several challenges that can lead to endodontic treatment failure; in cases of young permanent teeth the difficulty of sealing as well as the application of the biomechanical preparation protocol decreases the prognosis. Therefore, the objective of this study was to describe a clinical case of trauma in a young permanent tooth with incomplete rhizogenesis filled with bioceramic cement. A 10-year-old male patient attended the clinic school of the Centro Universitário Goyazes with a diagnosis of asymptomatic apical periodontitis in a tooth with incomplete rhizogenesis that suffered trauma more than ten months ago. After six months of treatment, the patient returned to complete the clinical case with total absence of symptoms. Two months after the obturation with bioceramic cement, the patient returned for a follow-up x-ray with the presence of bone neoformation and repair in the region. It was concluded that bioceramic materials have been shown as an alternative for the treatment of young permanent teeth with incomplete rhizogenesis as a consequence of the induction of hard tissue after biomechanical preparation and because they are biocompatible, bioactive and capable of tissue regeneration.
