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.

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. |

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