This study evaluated the regenerative outcomes of immature permanent teeth with necrotic pulps treated using three scaffold types-blood clot, platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), and concentrated growth factor (CGF)-combined with either 5% or 17% EDTA as the final irrigant. Thirty teeth were randomly assigned to six treatment groups and followed clinically and radiographically for 12 months. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to assess root development parameters, including root length increase, apical diameter change, hard tissue formation, and periapical lesion volume. Clinical assessments included pain, swelling, sinus tract formation, percussion sensitivity, and pulp sensitivity testing. The study aimed to determine whether different scaffold materials and EDTA concentrations influence regenerative healing responses in immature necrotic teeth.
