This non-randomized clinical study aims to evaluate the effect of apical patency during root canal treatment on the healing of periapical lesions in maxillary anterior teeth. Participants will be assigned to either an apical patency group or a non-patency group. Changes in periapical lesion volume will be assessed using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) one year after treatment. The study aims to provide an objective volumetric assessment of the potential contribution of apical patency to periapical healing.
