Orthodontic management of a non-vital immature tooth treated with regenerative endodontics: a case report

ABSTRACT

Management of non-vital immature permanent teeth in children remains a challenge in paediatric dentistry. The resulting short roots, thin root dentinal walls, and compromised crown root ratios, not only affect the long-term survival of these teeth but also complicate any intended orthodontic treatment. This case report shows a successful orthodontic movement of a traumatised non-vital immature tooth treated using regenerative endodontics.
