In 1919 Turnerand Drew first described the effect of periodontal
disease on the pulp. The relationship between the periodontium and
the pulp was first discovered by Simring and Goldberg in 1964.
Since then, the term ‘endo- perio lesion’ has been used to describe
lesions due to inflammatory products found in varying degrees in both
periodontium and pulpal tissues.
Endo perio problems are responsible for more than 50% of tooth
‑
mortality today.
The pulp and periodontium have embryonic, anatomic and
functional interrelationship.

PATHWAYS CONNECTING ENDODONTIC&
PERIODONTAL TISSUES
Anatomical pathways:
Apical foramen, accessory canals /lateral
canals
Congenital absence of cementum exposing
dentinal tubules
Developmental grooves
Non-physiological pathways:
Iatrogenic root canal perforations
Vertical root fractures caused by trauma,
pathway created due to resorption etc.
Moore 1987, Sundqvist1994
Most of the species that
have been found in
infected root canals can
also be present in the
periodontal pocket.
Rupf et al (2000) studied the profiles
of periodontal pathogens in pulpal
and periodontal diseases associated
with the same tooth and concluded
that periodontal pathogens often
accompany endodontic infections
Didilescu AC et al (2012)
- F. nucleatum, P. micra
and C. sputigena may play
a role in the pathogenesis
of endo-periodontal
lesions.

DEFINITION
It includes:
An isolated,usually narrow, deep probing depth of pulpal or periodontal
origin.
Lesion with submarginal or intrabony periradicular bone loss of pulpal &/or
periodontal origin that communicated with the oral cavity via a probing
defect.
A localized periodontal probing depth of pulpal or periodontal origin.
(K. Gulabivala. Endodontics 2004)

CLASSIFICATION OF ENDO-PERIO LESIONS
I. Based on etiology, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis
(by Simon, 1972)
Primary endodontic lesions
Primary endodontic lesions with secondary
periodontal involvement
Primary periodontal lesions
Primary periodontal lesions with secondary
endodontic involvement
True combined lesions
10.
II. Stock (1988)modified Simon’s classification
Omitted Class V of the classification.
He argued that both Class II and Class IV lesions in
advanced stages can become combined lesions and
therefore a separate class to describe these lesions was
not necessary.
11.
III. Based onclinical presentation strategies for each (by Weine, 1982)
Class 1-Tooth in which symptoms clinically and radiographically
simulate periodontal disease but are in fact due to pulpal
inflammation and/or necrosis.
Class II – Tooth that has both pulpal or periapical disease and
periodontal disease
Class III –Tooth that has no pulpal problem but requires
endodontic therapy plus root amputation to gain periodontal
healing.
Class IV- Tooth that clinically and radiographically simulates
pulpal or periapical diseases but in fact has periodontal disease.
12.
IV. Based ontreatment plan (Grossman classification,1991)
Type 1 – Requiring endodontic treatment only.
Type II – Requiring periodontal treatment only.
Type III – Requiring combined endo-perio treatment
13.
V. Classification asrecommended by the World Workshop for
Classification of Periodontal Diseases (1999)
Endodontic-periodontal lesion
Periodontal-endodontic lesion
Combined lesion

ENDO – PERIO– CONTROVERSY
• Two basic questions have been raised and continue to
be a matter of dispute :
1) Is periodontal disease a cause of pulp necrosis?
2) Can a pulpless tooth be the cause of periodontal
disease?
22.
EFFECT OF PULPALDISEASE ON THE
PERIODONTIUM
Early inflammatory changes in the pulp very little effect on the
periodontium.
Necrotic pulp produces inflammatory response transverse
into periodontal tissues.
Nature and extent of periodontal destruction depends on:
1. Virulence of pathogens in the canal system
2. Duration of the disease
3. Defense mechanism of the host.
CARRANZA 12TH
EDITION, 2016
23.
CONTRADICTING STUDY
Sanderset al. (1983) reported that after the use of freeze dried bone allograft, 65% of the
teeth that did not have root canal treatment showed complete or greater than 50% bone-fill
in periodontal osseous defects; while only 33% of the teeth which had root canal treatment
prior to the periodontal surgical procedure had complete or greater than 50% bone-fill.
Diem et al (2002) reported that all
tissues of the periodontium had a
potential for regeneration
regardless of the status of the
pulp. With proper endodontic
treatment, periodontal disease of
pulpal origin should heal.
Jansson et al (1998) Potential
effect of tooth with a necrotic
pulp has been described as a risk
factor in the initiation and
progression of periodontal
disease, and the resolution of
periodontal pockets.
24.
INFLUENCE OF ENDODONTICPROCEDURES
ON PERIODONTIUM
Aggressive removal of periodontal ligament and underlying cementum during
interim endodontic therapy adversely affects periodontal healing.
Precautions to be taken when periodontal therapy to follow endodontic treatment
Induce less mechanical trauma
Use more biocompatible sealers
25.
EFFECT OF PERIODONTITISON THE PULP
Result in atrophic and other degenerative changes like
Reduction in the number of pulp cells
Dystrophic mineralization/ calcification
Fibrosis
Reparative dentin formation
Inflammation and
Resorption
CAUSE:
Disruption of blood flow through the lateral canals localized areas of
coagulation necrosis in the pulp.
CARRANZA 12TH
EDITION, 2016
26.
Seltzer et al(1978) found
inflammatory alterations
and localized pulp
necrosis adjacent to
lateral canals in roots
exposed by periodontal
disease.
Cohen, 2002 have
suggested that
periodontal disease
causes pulpal necrosis.
Periodontal disease is a
direct cause of pulpal
atrophy and necrosis.
Rathod et al 2014,
severe chronic
periodontitis can affect
dental pulp
27.
CONTRADICTING STUDIES
Kirkham (1975)studied
100 periodontally
involved teeth & found
2% had lateral canals in
the periodontal pocket.
Tagger & Smukler (1979)
removed roots from
molars, extensively
involved with periodontal
disease in which root
amputation was
necessary. Pulps of these
showed no inflammatory
changes.
Mazur and Massler
(2009) found no
relationship of
periodontal disease as
a causative factor in
pulpal disease.
28.
EFFECT OF PERIODONTALPROCEDURES
ON PULP
Scaling and root planing:
removes the bacterial plaque
and calculus. However, improper
root planing procedures can also
remove cementum and the
superficial parts of dentin,
thereby exposing the dentinal
tubules to the oral environment.
Acid etching: citric acid removes
the smear layer, an important
pulp protector. Application of
citric acid may have a
detrimental effect on the dental
pulp.
29.
Primary Endodontic Lesion
Causes:
Deep caries
Large restorations
Traumatic injuries
History of pulp capping or pulpotomy
Poor root canal treatment
Characteristics Clinical Features:
Tooth mobility
Narrow pocket
Swelling in mucobuccal fold
Sore to bite/percussion
Concomitant Pulpal &Periodontal
Lesion
Characteristic Clinical Features:
Both disease states exist with no evidence
that either has influenced the other.
Treatment & Prognosis:
Both entities must be treated concomitantly
with prognosis dependent on removal of
individual causes.
CONCLUSION
A perioendo lesion can have a varied pathogenesis which ranges from quite
‑
simple to relatively complex one.
To make a correct diagnosis the clinician should have a thorough understanding
and scientific knowledge of these lesions.
Despite the segmentation of dentistry into the various areas of specialization, a
clinician needs to perform restorative, endodontic or periodontal therapy, either
singly or in combination.
Therefore, to achieve the best outcome for these lesions, a multi disciplinary
‑
approach should be involved.

#3 Ectomesenchymal cells proliferate to form dental papilla and follicle which are the precursors of periodontium and pulp resp. this embryonic development gives rise to anatomical connections which remain throughout life. Mortality: death, especially on a large scale.
#4 Cleidocranial dysplasia …autosomal dominant disorder presents with significant dental problems such as retention of multiple deciduous teeth, impaction or delay in eruption of permanent teeth and often, the presence of supernumerary teeth along with skeletal dysplasia
Inflammation frm pulp may extends into the periodontium causing destruction of periodontal tissues such a periodontal lesion is kas retrograde periodontitis.
Retrograde pulpitis occurs as a result of extension of inflammation from periodontal tissues into the pulp.
#5 etiological factors: risk factors contributing to the cause of a disease like underweight, high bp, tobacco , alcohol etc. Contributing factors: something that is partly responsible for a development or phenomenon ⇒ Stress,
Predisposing factors: any conditioning factor that influences both the type and the amount of resources that the individual can elicit to cope with stress. Include herediatery factors and lifestyle factors. Risk factors: A risk factor is any attribute, characteristic or exposure of an individual that increases the likelihood of developing a disease or injury. Some examples of the more important risk factors are underweight, high blood pressure, tobacco and alcohol consumption, and unsafe water, sanitation and hygiene

ABFRACTION a special form of wedge-shaped defect at the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) of a tooth
#15 Acute conditions: anug, acute periodontal abscess, acute herpetic gingivostomatits
Palpation is performed by applying firm digital pressure to mucosa covering the roots and apices. With the index finger the mucosa is presses against the underlying cortical bone. This will detect the presence of periradicular abnormalities that produce painful response to digital pressure. A positive response to palpation may indicate active periradicular inflammatory process. However this test doesnot indicate whether the inflammatory process is of endodontic or periodontal origin.
Percussion is performed by tapping on the incisal or occlusal surfaces of the teeth with the back of mirror handle the tooth is tapped vertically and horizontally. Positive Vertical percussion indicates the periapical pathology.. Positive Horizontal percussion indicates periodontium ass problems..
#16 *in the absence of periodontal disease may indicate the presence of a lesion of endodontic origin or a vertical root fracture
Mobility testing can be performed using 2 mirror handles on each side of the crown. Pressure is applied in facial- lingual as well as in a vertical direction and tooth mobility is scored.
Pocket probing: a tooth with this type of lesion will show normal sulcus depth all the way around the tooth until the area of the swelling is probed. At this point, the probe drops suddenly, to a level near the apex. The pulp is non vital

#20 pre-existing gum disease (periodontitis)………bacterial infection from a deep periodontal pocket…………..trauma to the gum eg. from food or debris embedded in the gum Periapical….bacteria from plaque invading the pulp of the tooth.
Bacteria enter the pulp through progression of a cavity (decay) or tooth fracture eg. trauma or through the gums and supporting tissues.
The pulpal infection spreads and reaches the bone surrounding the root tip, forming an abscess.
#22 Even a pulp that is significantly inflamed may have little or no effect on periodontium. It is thought that this initial pulpal inflammatory response is an attempt by the body to prevent the spread of inf to the apical tissues.
Narrow pocket with non vital pulpal response suggest problem is of endodontic origin. Unresolved endodontic lesion causes bone loss, pocket formation and impair wound healing. Virulence is a harmful quality possessed by microorganisms that can cause disease. Factors: lps. Vesicles .enzymes fatty acids capsules nd pilli enterococcus faecalis: ..
#23 Clinical message is root canal treatment should be completed before periodontal therapy.
Autograft.. a graft of tissue from one point to another of the same individual's body. Allograft ..a tissue graft from a donor of the same species as the recipient but not genetically identical. Xenograft .. a tissue graft or organ transplant from a donor of a different species from the recipient. Fdba- osteoconductive scaffold and elicits resorption .. Dfdba- osteoconductive and also osteoinductive
#24 Mechanical preparation, sealers, surgical trauma hinder new bone, cementum and connective tissue repair.
Biocompatibility refers to the ability of a material to perform with an appropriate host response in a specific situation Sealapex Obtuseal root canal sealer
#25 The effect of periodontal disease on pulp apperars to be more contaversial. Pathological changes occurs in pulp as a result of advanced periodontiis but the pulp doenot show degeneratve changes as long as the main canal has not been involved. It seems therefore that both influence each other but periodontal disease seems to have less influence on pulp compared to effect of pulp on periodontium ac to carranza 12th ed
Fibrosis is the formation of excess fibrous connective tissue in an organ or tissue in a reparative or reactive process. Dystrophic calcification (DC) is the calcification occurring in degenerated or necrotic tissue, …………..reaparative dentin: Morphologically irregular dentin formed in response to an irritant, such as caries, disease, or drilling to prepare a cavity for filling. Also called irregular dentin, reparative dentin.
#27 Root amputation is a specialized dental procedure, whereby one root is removed from a multi-root tooth. hemi-section refers to the sectioning of a molar tooth with the removal of an unrestorable root which maybe affected by periodontal, endodontic,……. Bicuspidization is a surgical procedure carried out exclusively on the mandibular molars, where the mesial and distal roots are separated with their respective crown portions;
#28 During periodontal regenerative therapy, root conditioning using citric acid helps to remove bacterial endotoxin and anerobic bacteria and to expose collagen bundles to serve as a matrix for new connective tissue attachment to cementum. Though beneficial in the treatment of periodontal disease,
Precautions taken during periodontal therapy:
1.Avoidance of the use of irrigating chemicals on the root surface 2. minimization of the use of ultrasonic scalers when there is less than 2mm of remaining dentin 3. Subsidence of minor pulpal irritations before completion of additional procedures.
#43 Intracanal .. Calcium hydroxide ..Eight principle antibiotic groups have been extensively evaluated for treatment of the periodontal diseases; tetracycline, minocycline, doxycycline, erythromycin, clindamycin, ampicillin, amoxicillin and metronidazole.
The biological principle of using cell-occlusive barriers was described by Melcher on the repair potential of periodontal tissues. (GTR) could be driven by excluding or restricting the re-population of periodontal defects by epithelial and gingival connective cells. Thus, providing space and favorable niche to maximize PDL cells, cementoblasts, and osteoblasts to migrate selectively, proliferate and differentiate within the periodontal defects help in promoting the reconstruction of the supporting tissue and attachment…. Mineral trioxide aggregate…retrofilling material…Super EBA is a reinforced zinc oxide cement
#46 Prognosis Good Prognosis Depends upon periodontal treatment and patient’s response Prognosis Depends upon endodontic and periodontal treatment and patient’s response Prognosis Depends upon severity of the periodontal disease and periodontal tissue response to treatment combined..
