Till last few decades, a necrosed tooth with immature apex was an indication for apexogenesis. With advances in dentistry such as improved irrigation protocols, better visibility to the operating site and increased skills of endodontists, regenerative endodontic procedures have come into the limelight. The alongside research in tissue engineering also have been beneficial for researchers and endodontists to open new horizons in regenerative endodontics. This review paper involves the triad of tissue engineering, concepts of regenerative endodontics applied in past, current protocols according to American Association of Endodontists and future concepts of tooth tissue regenerations which are being researched.
