Management of endo-perio lesion by guided tissue regeneration: A case report

Abstract

To diagnose and to treat, is a crucial part of management of an endo-perio lesion. The sign and symptoms of endo-perio lesion are difficult to accountable for a general dental surgeon. For that reason, it needs more detailed examination and definite treatment plan. The outcomes of endo-perio lesion are highly unpredictable due its multiple etiological factors. The primary and secondary etiological factors of endo-perio lesions may have numerous variation and ultimately concludes the definite treatment plan complex. A 43-year-old female patientcame to Department of Periodontics, with a chief complaint of pain in right posterior lower tooth region.On clinical examination, there was 5mm of periodontal pocket, occlusal restoration in 47. The treatment plan was made as first endodontic treatment followed by periodontal treatment. So endodontic treatment was carried out first in 47 after oral prophylaxis. Then under local anesthesia, open debridement was done in 47 and bone graft was placed in the defect. Resorbable membrane was placed over the graft. Suture was placed and periodontal dressing was given and followed up to 9 months. She was very satisfied with the result.
