Abstract
Root perforations are one of the unsolicited complications of endodontic treatment. Early diagnosis of the defect, location of the perforation, choice of treatment materials used, host response, and practitioner’s experience are the factors responsible for the successful management of root perforations. Perforations should be managed as soon as they are diagnosed. Several materials have been used for the management of root perforations, out of which Mineral trioxide aggregate is the most commonly used repair material. This case report presents the successful non-surgical management of iatrogenic perforation; repaired, treated and sealed with MTA.
