CBCT ‐Assisted Microsurgical Management of Dual Periapical Lesions Involving Vital and Previously Endodontically Treated Maxillary Molars: A Case Report
Abstract
In select multirooted/vital/permanent teeth with periapical pathology in one root due to adjacent infection from neighboring teeth, cone beam computed tomography-guided retrograde vital pulp therapy (retroVPT) with a bioactive cement can resolve the lesion and preserve pulp vitality, offering a conservative, biologically based, and cost-effective alternative to conventional root canal treatment.
