A New Classification of Endodontic-Periodontal Lesions

A New Classification of Endodontic-Periodontal Lesions

The interrelationship between periodontal and endodontic disease has always aroused confusion, queries, and controversy. Differentiating between a periodontal and an endodontic problem can be difficult. A symptomatic tooth may have pain of periodontal and/or pulpal origin. The nature of that pain is often the first clue in determining the etiology of such a problem. Radiographic and clinical ev...

Periodontal and endodontic regeneration.

Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is effective in halting tissue and bone destruction and promoting new tissue and bone formation. Although the goal of complete and predictable regeneration still remains elusive, many techniques and materials have been developed that show good clinical and histologic outcomes. The most commonly used materials in GTR include bone replacement grafts from numerous ...

Jaipur COMBINED PERIODONTAL - ENDODONTIC LESION

Endo-periodontal lesion – endodontic approach

Endo-perio lesions might be interdependent because of the vascular and anatomic connections between the pulp and the periodontium. The aim of this study is to emphasise that primary endodontic lesion heals after a proper instrumentation, disinfection and sealing of the endodontic space. The primary endodontic lesion with a secondary periodontal involvement first requires an endodontic therapy a...

[A new classification of coronary bifurcation lesions].

Coronary lesions located at a bifurcation present a wide range of angiographic and anatomical morphologies depending upon the distribution of the plaque in the segment affected. Different classifications have been proposed and used to define these lesions.1-3 Although these classifications clearly define all the possible combinations, they are difficult to memorise. For our classification we us...
