Effect of Indomethacin on Surface Treatment and Intracanal Dressing of Replanted Teeth in Dogs

The findings of this study suggest that intracanal dressing and topical root treatment with Ca(OH)2 with or without indomethacin is not recommended for teeth dried for 50 minutes, but the use of indomethacin alone as root surface treatment for delayed tooth replantation deserves further study using longer drying periods. In addition, the present results suggest that a single-visit root canal, performed up to 2 weeks after replantation, might be indicated for teeth dried for up to 50 minutes.
