[Periapical lesions treated with CaO. Histological controls]

Area of Science:

• Dentistry and Oral Pathology
• Biomaterials Science

Background:

• Granulomas in teeth represent inflammatory responses.
• Understanding the healing process post-treatment is crucial for dental regeneration.

Observation:

• Histological examinations were performed on two dental granulomas.
• The granulomas were treated using calcium oxide.

Findings:

• Calcium oxide treatment induced significant histological alterations.
• Scar tissue formation was observed as a precursor to new tissue growth.
• The regenerative process occurred within a relatively short timeframe.

Implications:

• Calcium oxide shows potential as a therapeutic agent for dental granulomas.
• The findings suggest a mechanism for accelerated tissue regeneration in oral pathology.
• Further research could explore optimizing calcium oxide application for enhanced dental healing.
