Abstract: Apexification consists of the process of inducing the formation of an apical barrier through the placement of a specific intracanal medication, which aims to complete the stage of root development that, for some reason, was interrupted before full root formation. Dental trauma can lead to significant consequences, particularly those related to the esthetic appearance and self-image of affected patients. The present study aimed to restore the esthetic and functional aspects of an 8-year-old patient who suffered dental trauma during the stage of incomplete root development, using the apexification technique with mineral trioxide aggregate and calcium hydroxide.
