Multidisciplinary Approach To Treat A True Combined Perio- Endo Lesion
Julie Toby Thomas, Toby Thomas.
Abstract
The merging of periodontal and endodontic disease has created much confusion amongst most of the dental practitioners regarding the diagnosis and its treatment plan. More than 50% of tooth mortality faced in the present scenario includes both Pulpal and Periodontal problems. Severe periodontal disease would result in destruction of supporting tissue further bringing down the prognosis of a true combined lesion to poor (or) even hopeless. This paper highlights a case of a lingually inclined tooth with a combined perio-endo lesion, which has been treated using both endodontic and periodontic measures. Successful management of such problems depends on patient compliance, possibility of tooth restoration and cost-effectiveness together favoring in proper treatment planning.
