The aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of osteotropic drugs in the treatment of destructive forms of apical periodontitis. Materials and methods: The study was conducted at Danylo Halytsky Lviv National Medical University, Department of Therapeutic Dentistry, Lviv, Ukraine.

In 70.21% of patients of group III, with transferred outside the apex PRP, and in 53.19% of persons of group IV, with the use of the composition «PRP + mp3 OsteoBiol» there were no clinical signs of DFAP. It was noted that 22 (46.81%) and 14 (29.79%) patients groups III and IV had no clinical signs of DFAP and radiologically determined a decrease in the focus of bone destruction of the periapical area, which allowed them to be classified as 2 - category of success - «incomplete recovery».
