Internal resorption, a rare phenomenon, has been a quandary from the stand points of both its diagnosis and treatment. It is usually asymptomatic and discovered by chance on routine radiographic examinations or by a classic clinical sign, ?pink spot? in the crown. It may occur in cases with chronic pulpal inflammation, following caries or due to trauma in the form of an accidental blow. It is important to diagnose this condition and institute treatment as early as possible to improve the prognosis of such teeth. This paper presents a case having resorptive defect in the coronal 1/3rd which was treated non-surgically. A six month follow-up showed good prognosis.
