Calcific metamorphosis is the obliteration of pulp canal space due to trauma or injury. Hemorrhage and blood clot formation in the pulp after injury is a nidus for calcification if the pulp still remains vital. Calcification replaces the cellular components of the pulp. Teeth with pulp canal obliteration prove to be a challenge to endodontic treatment. This case report describes the successful management of a tooth with calcified canal and perforation with six months follow up.

Calcific metamorphosis is the obliteration of pulp canal space due to trauma or injury. Hemorrhage and blood clot formation in the pulp after injury is a nidus for calcification if the pulp still remains vital. Calcification replaces the cellular components of the pulp. Teeth with pulp canal obliteration prove to be a challenge to endodontic treatment. This case report describes the successful management of a tooth with calcified canal and perforation with six months follow up.
