Abstract :
The aim of this work is to present a case of management of an open apex on a lower molar by using tissue engineering, with two
endodontic procedures in the same tooth. We had to resort to pulp regeneration on the distal root and apexification with MTA on
the mesial roots after the failure of regenerative therapy on those ones. The management consisted in scheduling regular follow-ups
combined with X-rays. After 24 months, the radiological control has shown pulpo-periodontal regeneration associated with walls
thickening and distal root elongation and periapical ad integrum healing.
