[Comparative analysis of calcium hydroxide apexification and regenerative endodontic procedure for root dentine growth stimulation in immature incisors with pulp necrosis].

Results and complications of both methods allow limiting indications for their usage. Ca(OH)2 apexification is more reliable in cases of pulp necrosis in teeth with III and IV stages of root formation when an estimated time for apexification is 3 to 6 months, under condition of good patient cooperation and possibility for good marginal fit of the restoration. REP is indicated in cases with I, II and III stages of root formation, as well as initial root resorption signs regardless of root formation stage.
