Nonsurgical Clinical Management of Periapical Lesions Using Calcium Hydroxide-Iodoform-Silicon-Oil Paste

Figure 3

Randomly selected cases to represent healing after CHISP injection into the lesion. The upper panel shows the effect of CHISP leading to gradual healing of the lesion in male patient, while the lower panel shows the healing in female patient. (a and f) Identification of lesion under radiolucency criteria. (b and g) Lesion filling with CHISP either in full as in male patient or partially as in female patient. (c and h) Follow-up after 10 days exhibits a clear degradation of the paste and lesser radiolucency in the lesion. (d and i) 60-day posttreatment, the bone quality is improved proportionally to the material retention. (e and j) Full resorption of CHISP with complete bony healing.
