This study presents a case of Non- Perforating Internal resorption affecting 35 (FDI) in a 28-year-old male patient, with a history of trauma in that region. Clinical examination revealed that there was a proximal caries in relation to 36. An intra oral periapical radiograph was taken. An oval shaped enlargement of root canal space in relation to 35 was revealed, which was confined within the tooth. The case was diagnosed as Non-perforating internal resorption in relation to 35. Owing to the favourable periodontal condition, orthograde root canal treatment with gutta-percha in the apical portion of the canal followed by filling the resorptive defect with bioactive material Biodentine was recommended as the treatment modality. Root canal treatment was suggested in relation to 36.
