Abstract

Tooth nonvitality is one of the frequently seen consequences of dental trauma that causes the

arrest of root development. Amniotic membrane has received a lot of attention for its use in

transplantation and regeneration procedures. This article reports a unique and novel case of

successful regenerative endodontic procedure done using amniotic membrane in a traumatized

immature right maxillary central incisor of an 8-year-old girl. The clinical and radiographic evaluation done during the recall visits at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months showed a progressive root

growth with apical closure. © 2021 Dental Research Journal | Published by Wolters Kluwer -Medknow
