Abstract
Periapical cysts are inflammatory cysts that developed due to caries and trauma of the involved tooth. Usually, the tooth becomes nonvital with pain, swelling, and sinus formation. On radiographic examination these cyst shows radiolucency around the apex of the involved tooth. On aspiration straw colored inflammatory fluid with or without pus comes out suggestive of a radicular cyst. Surgical removal with curettage of the lesion, apicoectomy, and root canal treatment should be performed to treat the lesion. Excised cavity can be augmented with PRP (Platelet rich plasma) or PRF (Platelet rich fibrin) for better healing of the lesion. This case series reported 3 such cases and their treatment with follow-up.
