In this Article, we will describe and state a differential diagnosis for the most common Periapical radiolucent lesions that means that it is located in the periapical area and appears radiolucent. When we say non-pulpal origins it means the tooth is vital (most cases) and the teeth are mostly not effected (unless its periodontitis or malignant tumor) but the source of the lesion isn’t due to the pulp.
