Abstract :Dental trauma is one of the important health problems in childhood. Dental injuries that affect children\'s maxillofacial development should be treated in the best and most accurate way. It may be necessary to splint the adjacent teeth in order to prevent increased mobility in the affected teeth after dental trauma. In this case report, external resorption with mobility is observed in an immature permanent tooth that had an average of 1 year dental trauma. Therefore, apexification treatment was started with a 4-week splint application. As a result of this 4-week splint, stabilization of the tooth was achieved. In addition, in this case, it is desired to restore the patient\'s function and aesthetics.Keywords : Dental trauma, splint, apexification, external resorption
