Treatment of the large periapical lesion - a case report

The case report describes the patient with large periapical lesion around the tooth root 23. Endodontic treatment was performed. On the first visit the root canal was developed mechanically and chemically, its lumen was filled with calcium hydroxide preparation. After two weeks root canal was tightly filled with gutta-percha points with Endomethasone N paste using lateral condensation method. After a week, the patient did not report any discomfort, so the tooth was filled with composite material. On the X-ray picture just after the final filling of the root canal can be observed reconstruction of periapical tissues. In the future, the tooth 23 can be used as a pillar to the prosthetic reconstruction.
