Abstract
Recall radiographic examination after 24Â months revealed healing of the periapical lesion and signs of continuous root development despite the apical root fracture. Clinical evaluation revealed normal tooth development, normal mobility, and a resolving buccal infection. The tooth was subjected to orthodontic treatment because of Class II division 1 malocclusion with an overjet of 11Â mm. After completion of the orthodontic treatment, 5.5Â years after the initial intervention, the radiographic image revealed marked remodeling of the periapical tissues and repair of the apical fractures, and the buccal infection had resolved completely.
