Abstract:
Endodontic-periodontal lesions (EPLs) develop due to the various pathways that allow microbial migration between these two compartments. The authors review the historical and current research on the aetiology, diagnostic pathways, prognostic factors and management strategies for EPLs, emphasising a multidisciplinary approach to managing EPLs. This paper aims to guide clinicians in managing these challenging cases with a combination of endodontic and periodontal therapies.
