Regenerative treatment for dead front teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to treat dead (necrotic) front teeth in adults by encouraging the tooth's own tissues to heal and regrow, instead of using a traditional root canal. It aims to save the tooth and improve healing of the infection at the root tip.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 40 years old.
- You need to have a front tooth that has died (the nerve is gone) and has an infection or cyst at the root tip.
- You must be in good overall health with no serious medical conditions.
- You cannot be pregnant.
- The tooth must not have been treated with a root canal before, and it must be possible to restore it.
- The tooth cannot have certain defects, such as open root tips or signs of root damage.

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 study tests a special nano-sized (extremely tiny) medication placed inside a tooth after a previous root canal treatment failed. The goal is to reduce inflammation and swelling in the bone around the tooth's tip so it can heal better.
This study tests different medicines to treat dead (necrotic) baby molars in children. The goal is to safely clean the infection and save the tooth so it can stay until it falls out naturally.
This study compares two types of antibacterial medicine placed inside the root canal during a root canal treatment to see which one is better at killing bacteria and reducing pain after the procedure. If you have a simple infected front tooth, this treatment might help you recover with less discomfort.
This study tests two methods to whiten teeth that have had root canal treatment. It compares using a diode laser with a special gel to see which works better for lightening discolored front teeth.
This study tests different medications placed inside the root canal to help young permanent teeth with dead nerves continue to develop. It aims to save the tooth and promote healing.
