For a non-vital tooth with an open apex (apexification), the treatment of choice is the use of a material like Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) to create an apical barrier, which can often be completed in a single sitting. Conventional obturation with gutta-percha requires a fully formed apex.

The combination of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim (known as cotrimoxazole) is synergistic because the two drugs sequentially block the bacterial folate metabolism pathway. Sulfamethoxazole inhibits the incorporation of PABA into dihydrofolic acid, while trimethoprim inhibits the reduction of dihydrofolic acid to tetrahydrofolic acid. 

Cotrimoxazole
It is a combination of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim. This has synergistis bactericidal action.
It is used for treating
Uncomplicated UTI
-Respiratory infections
-Gonorrhea
-Otitis media
Dose Trimethoprim 80mg+ Sulfamethanazole 400mg
Cotrimoxazole causes sequential block of the folate metabolam

Hydroxylation of protocollagen to true collagen in wound healing requires all three factors: 1) Oxygen - provides the oxidizing environment necessary for the hydroxylation reaction, 2) Ferric ion (Fe3+) - acts as a cofactor for the enzyme prolyl hydroxylase, 3) Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) - essential cofactor that maintains iron in the ferrous state and is required for prolyl and lysyl hydroxylase activity. Deficiency of any of these factors leads to defective collagen synthesis, resulting in poor wound healing and scurvy-like symptoms.
