Nonsurgical Management of a Large Periapical Lesion: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
This case report describes the non-surgical management of a large cyst-like periapical lesion in the mandible of a 16-year-old female with the chief complaint of periodic swelling and pus drainage from the mandibular anterior region gingivae with no history of pain and traumatic accident in this area. Both mandibular central incisors had extensive caries. Root canals of both mandibular central incisors were filled with calcium hydroxide. After 10 days, endodontic therapy was carried out on both teeth. Clinical and radiographic re-evaluations at 3 and 12 months revealed progressing bone healing. This case report shows that appropriate diagnosis in combination with root canal treatment as a conservative non-surgical approach can lead to complete healing of large lesions without invasive treatments.

AIM To report a case of conservative nonsurgical management of periapical lesions. BACKGROUND Small periapical lesions of endodontic origin usually heal by conventional endodontic therapy alone. Larger periapical lesions presumed to be cystic may require additional treatment protocols to aid in regression. Conservative nonsurgical management of such lesions eliminates the possible complicatio...
متن کاملTreatment of Large Periapical Cyst Like Lesion: A Noninvasive Approach: A Report of Two Cases
Periapical lesions develop as sequelae to pulp disease. Periapical radiolucent areas are generally diagnosed either during routine dental radiographic examination or following acute toothache. Various methods can be used in the nonsurgical management of periapical lesions: the conservative root canal treatment, decompression technique, active nonsurgical decompression technique, aspiration-irri...
متن کاملManagement of a Large Periapical Cyst: A Case Report
Traumatic injuries commonly affect the anterior teeth leading to slow death of the pulp. This may give rise to a periapical or radicular cyst which results from the proliferation of cell rests of Malassez following pulpal necrosis of a nonvital tooth. This condition is usually asymptomatic but can result in a slow-growth tumefaction in the affected region. On radiography the lesion can be seen ...
متن کاملNonsurgical management of a large periapical lesion using aspiration in combination with a triple antibiotic paste and calcium hydroxide
Persistent microorganisms in the root canal are known to cause endodontic treatments failure. Overextended gutta-percha can also act as a periradicular tissue irritant, leading to large periapical lesions. Retrieval of overextended gutta-percha with a nonsurgical approach can prove to be a challenge. This case describes the nonsurgical management of a large periapical lesion associated with ove...

Conventional nonsurgical endodontic treatment has a high degree of clinical success, but in certain cases surgical intervention becomes necessary. This is the case report of a patient presenting with bilaterally separate periapical lesions in the maxillary anterior region. One lesion was managed by periapical surgery using a novel and safe method of separating the soft tissue mass of the periap...

Tricho-Dento-Osseous syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder. Immunosuppressive drugs, though critical to the treatment, have undesirable effects on patient's healing process. This is a case report of a 10-year-old female, suffering from Tricho-Dento-Osseous syndrome who was under treatment with penicillamine. As the dental treatment was sought too late, both central and lateral incisors...
