Severe Bone Loss in Pulpal Vitality Upper Incisor: Case Report.

Abstract

The objective of this report was to present the diagnosis and treatment of a periodontal lesion, with a deep pocket (> 10mm), forming a dehiscence bone defect that affected the patient’s central incisor, promoting chronic inflammation. Despite the poor prognosis, the defect was treated with regenerative periodontal procedures, and at five months post-operative, the clinical examination showed no periodontal pocket (<3mm) or bleeding. We conclude that even in deep pockets and extensive bony defects, without bone walls, guided tissue regeneration is the primary treatment choice.
