Journal Title: IP International Journal of Periodontology and Implantology - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 3
Abstract
Periodontal disease affects the supporting tissues of the teeth and endodontic lesions effects pulpal and periapical tissues. These lesions provide many challenges to clinicians in day to day life in the diagnosis, treatment and management, particularly when both the lesions appear in a single tooth. Similar to other diseases, diagnosis can be made by obtaining history and by through clinical and radiographic examination. The diagnosis is essential in determining the type of treatment needed. The success of the therapy mainly depends on removing the cause and elimination of risk factors for developing the disease.
