Surgical Management of a Periapical Cyst with an Alloplastic Bone Graft: A Case Report
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4
Abstract
It has been observed that the root canal treatment for the preservation of tooth having periapical pathology has shown over 90% of success whereas in the case where the canal is calcified, perforated, ledge is formed, and cases where symptoms still exist after treatment, endodontic treatment may not be the solution in attaining a successful treatment. Thus Apisectomy would generally be done to prevent the loss of tooth having a periapical lesion where treatment prognosis is poorly evaluated by endodontic treatment. In following case endodontic treatment was applied due to a consistent radiolucent lesion in periapical area but the symptoms did not show improvement and therefore apisectomy was performed and an alloplastic bone graft was used to aid in a rapid bone formation.
