Jasneed M, Aysha Nahidha K P

Re-root canal treatment had been done on involved tooth along with perforation closure followed by permanent coronal restoration in multiple appointments. Postoperative examination during further follow-ups showed complete healing of periradicular lesion. The proper diagnosis of apical periodontitis and appropriate treatment plan of infected root canal system of previously treated tooth allowed complete healing of this lesion without endodontic surgery. Key words: Peri-radicular lesion
