Treatment of Persistent Periapical Lesion with TEMPCANAL

 

The patient had been under treatment for 4 years for a persistent periapical lesion with constant drainage. Retrograde surgery for removal of the cyst was scheduled. As a temporary measure before surgery, the pulp was removed and TempCanal was placed in the canal. The maxillary left lateral also tested non-vital and was endodontically treated and permanently filled with Pulpdent Root Canal Sealer at the same visit.

 

Radiograph shows periapical lesion involving the maxillary left central and lateral incisors.


Six weeks following the placement of TempCanal, radiograph shows trabeculation occurring in the periapical area. The surgical procedure was postponed, the TempCanal dressing was changed, and the case was followed until healing of the periapical lesion occurred.


One year follow up shows healing without surgery and final filling with Pulpdent Root Canal Sealer, using the Pressure Syringe technique.
