Case Report:A 9-year-old female patient was admitted to the clinic with the complaint of pain caused by biting in her left upper lateral tooth. It was learned that the tooth was traumatized one year ago.  Revascularization treatment was planned for the tooth with an open apex, which was clinically asymptomatic and no pathology was observed on radiographic examination.In the first session of the patient's tooth, the canal length was determined by opening the access cavity under local anesthesia.After irrigation with NaOCl, serum, CHX a double antibiotic paste was placed in the canal. When the patient arrived two weeks later, after making sure that he had no symptoms, the temporary filling was removed and irrigated with serum and EDTA. There was bleeding from the root tip, the canal was waited for filling with blood and clot formation. Then, the top filling was performed after MTA occlusion up to the coronal 1/3 of the root. First month, 6th month and 1 year controls of the patient were made.
