The aetiology of MIH is not clear yet, and the results of this study support the results of previous studies regarding the putative causal effect of several factors.

The color stability values after brushing may better reflect the discoloration of the esthetic restorative materials. Any color stability study model should consider the effects of toothbrushing that can remove the adsorbed colorants. The results of this study also showed that glass ionomer cements and compomers can be used in anterior restorations of children with their higher color stability than composite resins.

Root canal revascularization was performed on immature permanent teeth clinically and radiographically diagnosed as requiring root canal treatment. Following disinfection of the canal space with triple antibiotic paste (1 : 1 : 1: ciprofloxacin, metronidazole and cefaclor), a tissue scaffold was created with cPRP prepared using 2-step centrifugation. The final restoration was completed with white mineral trioxide aggregate and composite resin. The patients were recalled for clinical and radiographic evaluations every 3 months. At the 12-month follow-up apical closure by narrowing of the apical foramen and convergence of the apical walls in the treated teeth was observed.

-This review focuses on the current concepts on revascularization/revitalization therapy. Revascularization/revitalization procedures performed under current protocols have reportedly achieved successful clinical and radiographical outcomes for immature permanent teeth with non-vital pulps; however, randomized prospective studies are needed to develop evidence-based methodologies for regenerative endodontic treatment.
