4. DEFINITION
An isolated, usually narrow, deep probing depth of pulpal or
periodontal origin.
Lesion with sub marginal or intrabony periradicular bone loss of
pulpal and/or periodontal origin that communicates with the oral
cavity via probing defect.
A localized periodontal probing depth of pulpal or periodontal
origin.

STOCK
6. WEINE
Type I - Tooth in which symptoms clinically and radiographically
simulate periodontal disease but are due to pulpal inflammation
Type II - Tooth that has both pulpal and periodontal disease
concomitantly
Type III - Tooth has no pulpal problem but require endodontic therapy
plus root amputation to gain periodontal healing
Type IV - Tooth that clinically and radiographically simulate pulpal or
periapical disease but infact have periodontal disease
www.indiandentalacademy.com
7. LESIONS REQUIRING ENDODONTIC TREATMENT ONLY
GROUP I

8. LESIONS REQUIRING PERIODONTAL TREATMENT ONLY
GROUP II
Occlusal trauma causing reversible pulpitis
Occlusal trauma plus gingival inflammation resulting in pocket
formation and reversible pulpitis
Suprabony or infrabony pocket formation treated with overzealous
root planning and curettage leading to pulpal sensitivity

and sometimes coupled with lateral or apical resorption yet with pulp
that responds with in normal limits to clinical testing

9. LESIONS REQUIRING COMBINED ENDO – PERIO TREATMENT
GROUP III
Any lesion in Group I That results in irreversible reactions in the
attachment apparatus and requires periodontal treatment
Any lesion in Group II that results in irreversible reactions to the
pulp tissue and also requires endodontic treatment

diagnosis :
Vertical root fracture:
varied radiographic picture
Different angulations
Surgical exposure
lateral condensation excessive
Post placement
Cause
Extensive restorations
Older patients
Gingival sulcus & pocket area

21. EFFECT OF PULP AND ITS TREATMENT ON PERIODONTIUM
Periodontal inflammation & bone loss
Sub marginal bone loss
Horizontal bone loss
Vertical intrabony pockets
Furcation involvement
Periodontal wound healing
Traumatized necrotic pulp
RC infection – compromised healing
Gingival tissue thickness
Alveolar bone level
Surgical trauma to flap
Effective flap repositioning
Root canal treatment
Doubtful pulpal status
Iatrogenic problems

27. DIAGNOSIS OF ENDO PERIO LESIONS
History of dentinal / pulpal pain
History of periodontal symptoms (bleeding, recur. Infection , mobility)
- nature / duration
- risk factors
Signs and symptoms of pulpal / periapical disease (vitality)
Periodontal charting (probing profile)
- Recession
- Mobility
- Furcation involvement
- Attachment loss
www.indiandentalacademy.com
28. Clinical signs of pocket formation :
Bluish red marginal gingiva /
vertical zone extending from
marginal to attached gingiva.
“Rolled” edge separating gingival
margin form tooth surface.
Enlarged edematous gingiva.
Bleeding, suppuration, loose
extruded teeth.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
29. Symptoms of pocket formation
Usually painless
Localized or radiating pain or sensation of pressure after
eating which gradually diminishes.
Foul taste in localized areas.
Sensitivity hot and cold
Tooth ache in absence of caries are present

33. RADIOGRAPHIC PATTERN OF BONE LOSS
•Apical extent of bone loss
•Definite Pdl space absent
•Shape of bone defect ( angularity /
marginal bone )
Bone defect contributed by pulp infection :
- Periodontal intrabony defect – 2/3 root length
- Horizontal bone loss
- 2/3 root length
- periodontal bone loss involving root end
Acute pain generally absent in endo perio – open nature
30 – 60 % spirochaetes
0 – 10 % spirochaetes
- perio origin
- endo origin

37. TREATMENT ALTERNATIVES
ROOT RESECTION
REGENERATIVE TECHNIQUES
ROOT RESECTION :
“ Sectioning & removal of one or two roots of a
multirooted teeth with accompanying odontoplasty.”
ROOT AMPUTATION :
“Removal of one or more roots of a multi rooted tooth while
the others are retained.”
HEMISECTION :
“Removal or separation of root with its accompanying
crown portion of mandibular molars.”
www.indiandentalacademy.com
38. RADISECTION :
“Newer terminology for removal of roots of maxillary molars .”
BISECTION / BICUSPIDIZATION :
“Separation of mesial and distal roots of mandibular molar
along with its crown portion, where both segments are then retained
individually.”
www.indiandentalacademy.com
39. ROOT RESECTION
Furcation involvement.
( Maxillary / Mandibular - 3 point / Nabers probe )
Classification of degree of Furcation involvement
Class I - Horizontal loss of periodontal support< one
third of tooth width
Class II - Horizontal loss of periodontal support> one
third but not encompassing the total width of the
tooth
Class III - Horizontal through and through destruction of
the periodontal tissue in the furcal area
www.indiandentalacademy.com
40. INDICATIONS FOR RESECTIONS
Periodontal indications
Severe vertical bone loss involving only
one root of a multi rooted tooth
Through and through furcation
destruction
Unfavorable proximity of roots of
adjacent teeth
Severe root exposure due to dehiscence
www.indiandentalacademy.com
41. Restorative and endodontic indications:
Prosthetic failure of abutments within
a splint
Endodontic failure: perforations, over
extension , obstructed canals, separated
instrument , root resorption
Vertical fracture of one root
Restorative reasons: sub gingival
caries, erosion of large part of crown
and root, traumatic injury
Combination of these
www.indiandentalacademy.com
42. Contraidications
Root fusion making separation impossible
Angulation or position of tooth in the arch
Root morphology
Improperly shaped occlusal contact
www.indiandentalacademy.com
44. Envelop Type Flaps
Little Or No Attached Gingiva
Flap Edges - Sutured
Full Flap - Periodontal Disease - Scaling, Curettage Or Osseous
Contouring Procedures

45. REGENERATIVE TECHNIQUES
GTR – Differential tissue development
Barrier
Resorbable
Collagen
Synthetic
Non resorbable
Enamel matrix derived protein
Barrier – principle - stiff
