ABSTRACT
Introduction:
This case report presents the diagnosis and management of extensive internal root resorption (IRR) in a 17?year?old male patient, with a 9?year?old history of trauma.Method:
The affected tooth 21 was associated with vertical root fracture (VRF) and incomplete apex closure with a substantial loss of tooth structure, including dentin and cementum. Encouraged by a healthy periodontal condition, the choice was made to use mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) to reconstruct and reinforce the resorptive defect and the fractured segment. A composite veneer was placed to enhance the aesthetics.Result:
A follow?up of the patient after 2 years revealed healing with a resolution of the lesion.Conclusion:
This case report highlights the use of MTA as a lone?standing filling material for the treatment of IRR with VRF in a non?vital immature tooth
