“…Several clinical studies had similar findings, although with slightly different percentages (9,10). Ex vivo experiments in which simulated periapical lesions were created yielded similar results (11,12). Results of in vivo animal studies, using histologic assessments as the gold standard also showed similar results observed in human clinical and ex-vivo studies (13).…”

“…CBCT may be recommended for detecting AP where there is some clinical suspicion though not identified in periapical radiographs 17 . This study did not monitor the history, evolution and healing of the AP nor was any histological evaluation conducted, these being the limitations of the study when compared to the studies of Garcia de Paula-Silva et al 4 , Wu et al 23 and Jorge et al 30 .…”

ObjectiveTo perform a descriptive study in order to evaluate apical periodontitis in endodontically treated teeth using cone beam computed tomography. Methods Eighty RESUMO ObjetivoRealizar um estudo descritivo para avaliar periodontites periapicais em dentes com tratamento endodôntico em tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico. MétodosOitenta e seis exames que apresentaram pelo menos uma periodontite periapical foram selecionados e separados em dois grupos: 1 para a mandíbula, e 2 para a maxila. Todos os exames foram realizados na tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico com os mesmos protocolos de aquisição, e o mesmo software de avaliação e de mensuração. As lesões foram classificadas de acordo com o índice periapical, mas sem considerar a expansão do osso cortical e/ou destruição. ResultadosCento e vinte sete dentes inferiores e 180 dentes superiores apresentaram periodontites periapicais com tamanho médio de 0,49 mm na mandíbula e de 0,75 mm na maxila. Observou-se que os pré-molares inferiores foram os dentes mais acometidos. Lesões identificadas entre os escores 0 e 1 corresponderam a 83,47% das lesões na mandíbula e 78,89% na maxila, sendo que 55,12% dos dentes tratados endodonticamente inferiores e 50% superiores não apresentaram lesões reincidentes ou em fase de reparação. ConclusãoHouve um predomínio de periodontites periapicais pequenas, sendo os pré-molares os dentes mais acometidos por estas lesões.Termos de indexação: Periodontite periapical. Tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico. Diagnóstico por imagem. Tecido periapical.

“…This procedure made simulated initial lesions look like those observed in vivo, thereby enabling simulation of incipient lesions, which are more difficult to detect. 11,12,13,19 The anatomical proximity between the root apex and the cortical air space is more relevant than the size of a periapical lesion in establishing OAC. 3,8 Therefore, the longer acid etching time was not a Table 3.…”

CBCT-based evaluation of integrity of cortical sinus close to periapical lesions

et al. 2015

The purpose of the present study was to test the applicability of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to evaluate the integrity of the cortical sinus close to periapical lesions. Two observers analyzed samples of 64 alveoli of first molar roots in macerated swine maxillas prepared with perchloric acid to simulate periapical lesions. The specimens were evaluated using CBCT (55-mm high and 100-mm diameter cylinder at 0.2-mm voxel resolution) for the presence of oroantral communication (OAC) caused by the simulated lesions. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were calculated. Fair values were obtained for accuracy (66%-78%) and good values for specificity (70%-98%), whereas the values for sensibility showed relevant variation (41%-78%). For this reason, the interobserver agreement score was weak. CBCT proved capable of evaluating the integrity of the cortical sinus (absence of oroantral communication) when it lies close to an apical periodontitis lesion. However, the low interobserver agreement reflects the difficulty in performing diagnoses when OAC is adjacent to a periapical lesion, using the acquisition protocol adopted in this research. This could be attributed to the high level of image noise.
