New healing material for immature front teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a new tooth-colored bioceramic material (Neo MTA 2) in a procedure called revascularization, which helps immature permanent front teeth with dead nerves heal from the inside. The goal is to see if this material helps the tooth recover and continue growing normally.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- The patient must be able to cooperate during treatment (or have parents who can follow the instructions).
- No long-term health conditions that would slow down normal healing.
- The affected tooth must be a permanent front tooth that is not fully developed and has a dead nerve.
- There must be enough healthy tooth structure above the gum so a final filling or crown can be placed without extra posts.
- The tooth cannot have internal or external root resorption (root damage).
- No allergy to the medicines or antibiotics used in the procedure.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a regenerative treatment for immature permanent teeth (front teeth with developing roots) in children and teens. The goal is to help the tooth's pulp heal and allow the root to continue growing naturally.
This trial tests a new bioceramic medication placed inside the root canal of infected front teeth to see if it improves healing. It is for adults with mature front teeth and an infection around the root tip, who are otherwise healthy.
This study compares two types of putty used to treat the nerve of a deep cavity in a baby tooth, and then looks at two types of crowns (caps) placed on top. It's for healthy children ages 5–7 who need this treatment on a back baby tooth.
This trial tests a new nanotechnology-based treatment to help regrow the inside of an immature dead tooth, potentially saving it. It is for upper front teeth that are not fully developed and can be repaired.
This study compares two different root canal filling materials used during a second root canal treatment (retreatment) for teeth with an infection at the root tip. The goal is to see if one material is better at healing the infection and saving the tooth.
This trial tests a new approach to help injured, still-growing permanent teeth heal and continue to develop naturally. It may be an option if your child has a traumatized tooth with an infection and the root is not yet fully formed.
