Tratamento endodôntico com complementação cirúrgica periapical associada ao L-PRF: relato de caso clínico

Abstract

Introduction: When diagnosing periapical bone rarefaction due to endodontic infection, the primary clinical approach is the treatment of root canals. However, in some cases, endodontic treatment is not sufficient to resolve this condition, thus requiring periapical surgical complementation, seeking to eliminate persistent foci of infection and promote bone neoformation. Objective: To report endodontic treatment in right upper premolars, and parendodontic surgery in the right upper first premolar in association with L-PRF, in order to reverse periapical bone rarefaction and preserve both teeth. Method: To present a clinical case report on different approaches to resolution of periapical bone rarefaction, through endodontic treatment and parendodontic surgery associated with L-PRF. Conclusion: In some advanced cases of periapical bone rarefaction, surgical complementation is necessary, offering a better prognosis to the patient.
