Özet

Purpose Although electric pulp tests (EPT) may play a valuable diagnostic role in traumatized immature permanent teeth, the EPT threshold values which can be used as reference are not known. The aim of this study was to determine the average range of EPT threshold values in healthy permanent incisors according to their stage of root development.
