Dr. Maya Mhaske [3] | Dr. Mithila Kakade [3]
Abstract: An Endo perio lesion has been one of the most common problems associated with the tooth. The simultaneous involvement of pulpal problems and inflammatory periodontal disease can complicate diagnosis and treatment planning. The present case series shows the importance of periodontal therapy that includes open debridement of the defect followed by placement of PRF, PRF+bone graft, PRF+bone graft +GTR membrane in the furcation defect crated by endo-perio lesions. The tooth was first endodontically treated that was followed by periodontal treatment. 3 months post operatively there was significant gain in clinical attachment level. Radiographically there was a significant amount of bone fill observed.
