METAPEX – A NEW GENERATION OBTURATING MATERIAL??- A CASE REPORT

Abstract

The complex interrelationship between the endodontic and periodontal lesion has always lead to controversies, confusion and debate. The pulpal infection can spread and cause a periodontal lesion or vice-versa. Detecting the origin of the infection is crucial. Thus, a careful investigation of the history, symptoms, clinical and radiographic features should be done to reach a denitive diagnosis and treatment plan. An interdisciplinary approach to such cases gives a higher success rate. The present case report deals with the management of an endo-perio lesion with an unforeseen double le separation. The novelness in this case lies in the management of the double le separation in a single canal using metapex.
