The management of traumatized young permanent teeth has always been a challenge to the clinician, considering the importance of retaining the vitality of the tooth. Recently, collagen particles have been successfully used as pulpotomy medicaments in primary teeth. This case report shows the use of collagen particles as pulpal dressing in a traumatized young permanent tooth of a nine-year-old child presenting with complicated fracture of young permanent left maxillary central incisor. Partial pulpotomy was performed with collagen particles (Biofil-AB) as pulpal dressing. At six months follow up, apexogenesis was found to be nearly complete. Thus, collagen can be considered as a potential pulpal medicament for apexogenesis procedures.
考虑到保留牙齿活力的重要性,创伤后年轻恒牙的治疗一直是临床医生面临的挑战。近年来,胶原颗粒已成功用作乳牙活髓切断术的药物。本病例报告展示了胶原颗粒作为牙髓敷料在一名9岁儿童的创伤后年轻恒牙中的应用,该患儿左上颌乳中切牙出现复杂骨折。采用胶原颗粒(Biofil-AB)作为牙髓敷料进行部分活髓切断术。随访6个月时,牙根形成已接近完成。因此,胶原可被视为根尖诱导成形术的一种潜在牙髓药物。
