Treatment of immature teeth with non‐vital pulps and apical periodontitis

1. The infected root canal space cannot be cleaned and disinfected with the standard root canal protocol using an aggressive procedure with endodontic files. 2. After the disinfecting phase of treatment has been completed, filling the root canal is difficult because the open apex provides no barrier for containing the root filling material without impinging on periodontal tissues. 3. Even after successfully completing the endodontic procedure, the roots of these teeth are still thin and have a significant risk of subsequent fracture.
