A 56-year-old male patient was referred to a private practice for endodontic treatment of tooth 46. Periapical radiography revealed periapical and furcation bone radiolucency. After anesthesia, the tooth was isolated and coronal access was achieved with a 1014 diamond bur. After exploration of the root canal, electronic odontometry was performed and the canal was prepared with a Solla Purple #25.06 file in the mesial canals and a #35.06 file in the distal canal. Foraminal patency, extending 1 mm beyond the apical foramen opening, was achieved with a Solla Collors 16.02 Glide Path file. Obturation of the root canal system was performed using the single cone technique. It is concluded that conservative endodontic treatment is the first choice for teeth with periapical lesions, as it resulted in bone neoformation of lesions with characteristics of endo-periodontal lesions.
