Description
Summary:Two most common conditions that can independently lead to tooth mortality are periodontal and pulpal diseases. To maintain the natural dentition and also to restore the lost periodontium are the goal of endodontic and periodontal therapy. There are several reviews in literature where authors have given wide information about the etiology, pathogenesis, classification, diagnosis, and treatment planning, and lot of literature about the recent advances pertaining to aspects of endo-perio lesions are also available, but reviews compiling all major aspects are relatively less and this review aims to brief the etiology, various classifications, diagnosis, and management of endodonticperiodontic lesions. Successful treatment of periodontic-endodontic lesions depends on all contributing lesions being treated. Lesions with combined etiology will require both endodontic and periodontal therapy. Endodontic therapy should be completed first. The clinical experience and acumen of the dentist must be of the highest degree to enable choosing the procedure that will bring healing with the appropriate intervention.
