Abstract

Among widespread oral diseases, endo-perio lesions carry a special weight age in terms of identification and prognosis. The tooth mortality rate among these clinical conditions is close to 50 % and etiological factors were also variable. These conditions are very difficult to diagnose since the etiological factors vary from individual to individual. The symptoms are often intermixed and sometimes are totally asymptomatic. Management remains a formidable task for clinicians because success rate is difficult to determine and prognosis depends upon the involvement and progression of lesion. Another worry for the clinicians is whether early re-implantation is necessary or late reimplantation could be performed if immediate storage medium of avulsed tooth is not available. In this paper, a case series has been depicted in which two combined endo- perio lesions avulsive in nature were successfully managed. Earlier endodontic treatment was performed followed by periodontal therapy. Excellent results were obtained in terms of esthetics and phonetics and there were no post-operative complications.
