Abstract: The complete growth of roots along with complete apical closure occur within 3 years of tooth eruption. In this period, the management of pulpal injuries poses a serious problem for the dentist. The importance of appropriate clinical examination and endodontic diagnosis in the treatment of immature teeth cannot be overstressed. The best treatment for nonvital teeth is Apexification Where the root ends were closed to create better conditions for the conventional root canal fillings. The most common material for sealing open apex is calcium hydroxide, but recently there has been interest in the use of mineral trioxide aggregates (MTA). This article describes a case report of the successful use of MTA in the apical repair of an open apex tooth.
