RESUMO
Dental pulp regeneration: An overview of the current approaches. Regenerative Endodontic Procedures (REPs) are biologically based procedures aimed at restoring the damaged structures and physiological functions of the pulp-dentine complex. Clinically, two strategies have been proposed so far to induce REP: cell transplantation and cell homing. REPs success relies primarily on the clinical and biological conditions of the tooth; therefore, cell homing strategies will not be consistently successful in every condition. Root canal treatment remains the standard of care for mature teeth with necrotic pulps and closed apex.
