The success of pulp revascularization in pregnant women; A literature review

This article presents a literature review, which aims to establish a link between the success of pulp revascularization as a new therapeutic approach of teeth with necrotic pulp, and the state of pregnancy in women. The success of pulpal revascularization depends essentially on the availability of stem cells and the presence of growth factors that will direct the differentiation of these cells to a specific cell line. An electronic search was conducted on PUBMED, Cochrane, and Journal of Endodontics using the following keywords: pulp revascularization, pregnancy, growth factors, dental pulp stem cells, . Then, and in order to identify items that would have escaped the electronic search, a manual search was performed from the list of pre-selected items.
