Abstract

This case study aimed to report non-surgical repair of a root perforation by using mineral trioxide aggregate. The steps to repair a root perforation in this case had need to consider the cleanliness of a root perforation; hence it was essential to clean with sodium hypochlorite. Then, mineral trioxide aggregate was used to repair a root perforation without using internal matrix as barrier to prevent extrude into periodontium. Mechanical instrumentation and filling root canal with guttapercha. The tooth was restored with prefabricated post and crown.After a six-month follow up, the absence of pain and swelling along with functional tooth stability,healing of periapical lesion which indicated a successful outcome in this case. This case report demonstrated that mineral trioxide aggregate was appropriate material to repair a root perforation.
