Apical closure of nonvital permanent incisor teeth where no treatment was performed: Case report

Abstract

<h2>Summary</h2> Although apical closure in nonvital teeth has occurred following treatment with various root canal medicaments, our case suggests that root end closure may take place in the absence of endodontic therapy. Thus, debridement of the pulp chamber may not be a prerequisite for apical closure. Furthermore, the results in this case indicate that the use of root canal medicaments is not always essential to induce root end closure.
