Table 4. Factors that affect the results of revascularization.

Factor	Finding
Degree of infection of the canal	It is impossible to treat an infected tooth with the revascularization procedure
Degree of infection of the canal	Tri-antibiotic paste. Calcium hydroxide is used to disinfect the canal
Apex diameter	An open apical foramen > 1.1 mm is beneficial
Apex diameter	Possibility of revascularization increases in approximately 18 - 34% of teeth with immature roots
Patient age	Recommended age range: 8 - 16 years
Patient age	Revascularization should not be performed on deciduous teeth
