Extraction
Periapical abscess ( pariapical inflammation)

Extraction.
Periapical cyst (periapical inflammation)
Pathological cavity lined by epithelium.
Most common cyst occurring in oral cavity.
Extraction or curretage or periapical tissues.
Root resorption
Class cells (destroyer cells)
Caused by trauma, inflammation, pressure
External: from outside to inside, starting at apex
Internal: from pulp outward, may result in pink tooth clinically because of exposed coronal pulp.
