ABSTRACT

Radicular cysts are inflammatory lesions of the jaws in the tooth-bearing areas. These lesions more commonly involve the apex of the associated tooth and have a well-defined radiolucency. Platelet rich fibrin is known as a healing biomaterial in oral surgical defect with the new aspect of advanced healing of a bony defect. The present case is of large radicular cyst associated with root canal treated maxillary permanent incisors in a 28-year-old boy and its surgical management with PRF augmentation as a healing biomaterial in the bony defect. One-year follow-up showed satisfactory healing. Healing was relatively fast and enhanced by placement of PRF without any post-operative complications.

Keywords: platelet rich fibrin, surgical management, radicular cyst
