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 report shows the importance of periodontal therapy that includes open debridement of the defect followed by placement of alloplastic bone graft (G-bone) in furcation defect created by endodontic lesion. The tooth was first endodontically treated that was followed by periodontal treatment. 6months post operatively there was significant gain in clinical attachment level. Radiographically there was a significant amount of bone fill observed.
