Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Revascularisation with Diode laser application  in the first appointment during cleaning and shaping sodium hypochlorite will be activated with infrared diode Laser power set at 2.5W for 15 seconds x 2 cycles. Then the canal will be closed with out triple antibiotic paste. After 2 weeks canal will be reopened and bleeding will be induced and canal will be closed in the same manner as in the comparator Duration: Diode laser irradiation will be done to activate sodium hypochlorite in the first appointment for a total duration of 30 seconds. After 2 weeks, in the second appointment if patient is asymptomatic, revascularization procedure will be carried out. If, in the second appointment, symptoms persist the same irradiation protocol will be repeated for 30 seconds. After another 2 weeks, if symptoms persist the patient will be given triple antibiotic paste and excluded from the study. The intervention will not be repeated during follow up. 
Comparator Agent  Revascularization procedure with triple antibiotic paste  In necrotic teeth with chronic apical periodontitis revascularization procedure as per the American Association of endodontista will be carried out. in the first appointment access opening, cleaning will be done with sodium hypochlorite as irrigant. Canal will be closed with triple antibiotic paste. After 2 weeks, bleeding will be induced and platelet rich fibrin scaffold will be placed. biodentin will be placed as coronal barrier and glass ionomer cement will be placed.  
Intervention  Revascularization with Er:YAG laser irradiation  In the first appointment Er:YAG laser will be used to activate sodium hypochlorite at a frequency of 10 Hz for 60 seconds x 1 cycle instead of diode laser. Rest of the procedure will be same as the diode laser group. Duration: Er:YAG laser irradiation will be done to activate sodium hypochlorite in the first appointment for a total duration of 60 seconds. After 2 weeks, in the second appointment if patient is asymptomatic, revascularization procedure will be carried out. If, in the second appointment symptoms persist the same irradiation protocol will be repeated for 60 seconds. After another 2 weeks, if symptoms persist the patient will be given triple antibiotic paste and excluded from the study. The intervention will not be repeated during follow up.

Brief Summary   The study is designed to assess the success of revascularization in mature teeth with periradicular lesion and the effect of laser in enhancing the regenerative ability.
The experimental groups are
Group 1: Regenerative endodontic procedure (REP) procedure similar to American Association of Endodontists clinical considerations (2016) for immature teeth
Group 2: Diode Laser 
Group 3: Er: YAG laser
A power analysis was established by G*power, version 3.0.1(Franz Faul universitat, Kiel, Germany). A sample size of 51 (17 per group) would yield 90% power to detect significant differences, with assuming the effect size of 0.2, (Eldessoky et al) and significance level at 0.05. Considering 20% attrition rate, total sample size is 51+12= 63 (21 per group)
Group 1 the standard revascularization procedure will be carried out as per the AAE guidelines which includes triple antibiotic paste in first appointment for disinfection followed by revaculrization and pRF placement in second appointment which is after 14 days.
in group 2 and group 3 laser assisted irrigation will be used for disinfection and triple antibiotic paste will not be used. during the revascualrization visit photobiomodulation with the respective laser will be done.
patients will be recalled at 1month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 24 months for clinical assessment of symptoms, pulp sensibility tests, digital radiographic assessmnt. CBCT will be done at 12 month follow up to evaluate the regression of periapical lesion.
