Abstract :

Frequent occurrence of dental trauma in the early childhood often leads to persistence of immature nonvital tooth supplemented by periapical periodontitis as well as inflammatory external root resorption. Such teeth pose several difficulties in front of the clinician primarily due to absence of definite apical stop. The present case report highlights the nonsurgical endodontic management of a similar case in a novel way with long term clinically favourable outcome.
