Core Tip	This case report describes conservative endodontic management of a delayed oblique root fracture in a maxillary central incisor. In this delayed root fracture case, the coronal and the apical fragments of the canal were both chemo-mechanically prepared and obturated by a single cone gutta-percha with iRoot SP, a new calcium silicate based bioceramic root canal sealer. With follow-up at 1, 6, 12 and 24 mo, the patient was asymptomatic and the radiolucency around the fracture line was healing radiographically. Conservative root canal treatment should be considered as an alternative treatment in some cases of oblique root fracture with no healing. The application of bioceramic sealers and single core obturation techniques may also be essential to obtain an excellent outcome.
