Abstract
Endodontic treatment is challenging in teeth with a blunderbuss canal and an open apex due to difculties in attaining an apical seal. Nonsurgical one-step apexication using materials such as mineral trioxide aggregate has been proposed to overcome the shortcomings of the traditional longterm calcium hydroxide apexication technique. In order to create an apical plug, there has to be some matrix against which MTA can be placed. Platelet-rich brin (PRF), a second-generation platelet concentrate, can be employed as a matrix material against which MTA can be condensed. This case series aims to present the treatment of an immature tooth with an open apex using a one-step apexication using autologous PRF membrane as an interior matrix and MTA as an apical barrier.
