Abstract

This case report presents the diagnosis, successful management, and healing of a large periapical lesion associated with the mandibular first molar teeth The patient's chief complaint was severe, intermittent pain in the lower right posterior region of the mouth, and radiographic examination revealed a substantial periapical radiolucency around the apices of the mandibular first molar. The treatment involved root canal therapy along with adjunctive procedures to promote healing of the periapical lesion. Follow-up radiographs demonstrated a significant reduction of the periapical lesion with complete resolution of symptoms.
