Abstract

Apical periodontitis of endodontic origin rarely leads to sensory impairment of the inferior alveolar or mental nerve. This article reviews and documents a clinical case of neurological disorder where paresthesia and hypesthesia of the mental nerve resulted as a sequel of apical periodontitis of a mandibular second premolar. The healing process and long-term results 3 years after conventional root canal treatment are presented.
