Radiographic Diagnosis of periapical Lesions: Essential Guide for Accurate Interpretation

🦷 Periapical Lesions: Diagnosis, Types, and Radiographic Features

Periapical lesions are commonly found in dental practice, often associated with conditions like apical periodontitis, periapical granuloma, periapical abscess, and periapical cysts. These lesions primarily affect the maxillary anterior teeth and can cause pain, discomfort, or sensitivity to hot and cold beverages, depending on their severity.

📌 What You’ll Learn in This Video:
✅ Causes and progression of periapical lesions
✅ Differences between periapical abscess, granuloma, and cyst
✅ Radiographic characteristics of each type of lesion
✅ Diagnostic methods, including clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic examination
✅ Common reasons for persistent periapical radiolucencies

🦷 Key Takeaways:
🔹 Periapical granuloma: Well-defined radiolucency (1.6 cm) with a thin border
🔹 Periapical cyst: Larger, well-circumscribed lesion with a sclerotic border
🔹 Periapical abscess: Irregular radiolucency with loss of lamina dura
🔹 Root resorption, fibrous scars, and extraradicular infections may contribute to unresolved lesions
🔹 Diagnosis requires radiographic assessment and, in some cases, histopathologic confirmation
