Study aim
-
The use of dental pulp complex in closed apex necrotic teeth with using fibrin hydrogel for regeneration of dental pulp.
-
Design
-
The participants who meet inclusion criteria will be randomized in two groups, the experimental group and the control group . The outcome will be assessed during recall examinations and after extraction, included clinical examinations, taking dental x-ray and histological tests. Selection and exclusion of subjects (experimental n:۵, control n:۵).
If the root canal treatment with stem cells is successful, the teeth will be healthy like other teeth, and if the root canal treatment is not successful, the standard root canal treatment will be done free of charge.

Settings and conduct
-
Tehran University of Medical Sciences- Regenerative Medicine and stem cell Research Center
The study is designed as a Clinical trial study. The participants who meet inclusion criteria will be randomized in two groups.
-
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
-
The main inclusion criteria of the study before randomization:
Patients with single-rooted teeth number 1, 2 and 3 with irreversible pulpitis (need for root canal treatment)
The main exclusion criteria of the study before randomization:
Patients with perforation of the tooth from the pulp cavity through the tip of the root, which exposes the tissue to the material in the oral cavity.
-
Intervention groups
-
The experimental group received the proposed intervention (root restoration method using fibrin hydrogel) and the control group received the standard root restoration treatment .
-
Main outcome variables
-
Pulp evaluation will done by radiographic and clinical examination. Signs, symptoms, apical healing, and vitality will be compared with preoperative examinations.
To evaluate odontoblasts and fibroblasts, extracted teeth will be used in-vitro, and the expression of genes will be evaluated in a3D environment.
