Summary

This study tested four ways to help the inner pulp of immature permanent molars keep growing so the tooth root can finish forming. The treatments were calcium hydroxide, MTA, laser alone, and laser combined with MTA. One hundred healthy children and teens with vital (living) pulp took part. The goal was to see which method best supports root completion and strength.
