Pulp necrosis with incomplete root formation in permanent teeth leads to open apex of the particular tooth which leads to the formation of the periapical pathology. The management of such cases poses a great endodontic challenge. Apexification is the process of induction of calcific barrier across the open apex or the continued apical development in an immature tooth with infected necrotic pulp. The aim of this case report is to share a successful apexification of maxillary central incisors with by using Biodentine without complications.
Result: Biodentine is a material of choice for single visit apexification.
Keywords: Apexification, Apical barrier, Biodentine, Immature teeth.
