Summary

This study tested whether transplanting pulp tissue from a healthy tooth into a dead one could restore vitality. Twenty-one adults with dead single-rooted teeth received either a pulp transplant, a pulp transplant with growth factors, or standard root canal treatment. The goal was to see if the treated teeth would respond to electrical stimulation, indicating nerve regrowth. Results are preliminary and more research is needed.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
autologous dental pulp transplantation
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a way to restore feeling in dead teeth, avoiding root canals and keeping the tooth alive.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early study with only 21 people. The procedure requires a healthy donor tooth, and long-term success is uncertain. Risks include pain, infection, or the transplant not working.
