This case report describes the non-surgical management of a large cyst-like periapical lesion involving 12,13,14 in a 20 years old female patient who came with a chief complaint of swelling and pus discharge with no history of pain and traumatic accident in that area. Root canal therapy was done in the same with use of calcium hydroxide intracanal medicament and obturation using bioceramic sealer. Clinical and radiographic re-evaluations at 2, 6 and 12 months revealed progressing bone healing. This case report shows that appropriate diagnosis in combination with root canal treatment and use of bioceramic sealers as a conservative non-surgical approach can lead to complete healing of large lesions without invasive treatments.
