Non-Surgical Treatment of Periapical Lesions Using Calcium Hydroxide: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
The success of root canal treatment is based on total elimination of root canal content, thorough cleaning, shaping and obturation of root canal system. Calcium hydroxide is recommended as intra-canal medicament because of its antibacterial properties, tissue dissolving ability, inhibition of tooth resorption and indication of tissue repair by hard tissue formation. Here we present a series of case reports, where calcium hydroxide was used as an inter appointment endodontic dressing management of large periapical radiolucency and periodically reviewed. Significant bone formation was seen at the periapical region at periodic check up visits. Thus the non surgical healing of the multiple periapical lesions provided favorable clinical and radiographic response.
