Abstract
MASSON PALACIOS, María José; AGUILAR ORTIZ, Miriam Alejandra; PARISE VASCO, Juan Marcos and ARMAS VEGA, Ana del Carmen. Apexificación de un molar permanente a través de silicato tricálcico. Rev Eug Esp [online]. 2020, vol.14, n.1, pp.105-113. ISSN 2661-6742. https://doi.org/10.37135/ee.04.08.05.
9-year-old pediatric male patient, who came for dental evaluation because of dental pain after eating cold food. The definitive diagnosis was established as reversible pulpitis of the molar 36, deciding on the therapeutic behavior of the direct pulp coating with tricalcium silica to achieve apexification. The clinical decision was successful, the follow-up of the evolution identified the affected tooth as vital, the roots continued to develop, and no signs or symptoms of periapical lesions appeared.
Keywords : apexification; pulpotomy; tricalcium silicate.
