An Overview on Endo-Perio Interrelationship - A Multidisciplinary Approach
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 12
Abstract
The human periodontium and dental pulp cavity are closely connected by their proximity and by the presence of apical and lateral radicular foramina, which permit the passage of pathogens between these two distinct anatomical areas. The interrelationship between endodontic and periodontic lesion has been a subject of speculation, confusion and controversy for many years. Pulpal and periodontal problems are responsible for more than 50% of tooth mortality today. An endo-perio lesion can have a varied pathogenesis which ranges from quite simple to relatively complex one. When a periapical lesion communicates with a deep periodontal pocket, the etiology can be either endodontic or periodontic. The purpose of this review paper is to explain the nature of that relationship. Successful therapy will only result from the establishment of an accurate diagnosis and forming such a diagnosis requires a methodical multi-staged approach.
