Palatogingival Groove and the Perio-Endo Lesion: Management through Endo-Perio Regenerative (IPRF) Approach: A Case Report

Palatogingival grooves (PGG) are developmental malformations infamous for precipitating endodontic-periodontal lesions. Pertaining to their discreet occurrence, variation in groove depth and funnel like shape, adherence of plaque and calculus is apparent thereby jeopardizing the periodontium and pulp. A case of palatogingival groove in maxillary left lateral incisor was diagnosed and managed with endodontic treatment followed by open flap debridement to seal the groove with biodentine and fill the defect with bone graft. On follow up, the periapical lesion and the periodontal pocket were successfully resolved.

Palatogingival Groove

ABSTRACT This article is a case report of the successful interdisciplinary management of a maxillary lateral incisor with a deep palatogingival groove. The tooth presented with severe periodontal destruction owing to the deep extension of the groove up to the root apex. The groove was meticulously diagnosed and treated by endodontic and subsequent periodontal surgery leading to complete resolution of the pathological process.

Palatogingival Groove

ABSTRACT The palatal groove is a developmental anomaly; when it is present in a tooth, it causes periodontal as well as endodontic problems. These grooves often present a challenge to the clinicians as diagnosing and treatment planning that requires an interdisciplinary treatment approach. This case report describes the successful collaborative management of a maxillary lateral incisor with an extensive palatal groove, using a combination of surgical endodontic therapy along with periodontal therapy.

Palatogingival Groove

ABSTRACT Palatogingival grooves are morphological defects, which are found most frequently in maxillary anterior teeth and are a predisposing factor for periodontal disease. They are easily overlooked as etiologic factors, as these grooves are covered by periodontal tissues. A palatogingival groove may serve as a pathway for the development of a periodontal lesion. This case report presents successful management of a maxillary lateral incisor with an associated palatogingival groove and deep periodontal pocket. The clinical examination at 1 year revealed shallow residual probing depth. How to cite this article Kashyap V, Baburaj MD. Palatogingival Groove: An Innocuous Culprit of Periodontal Lesion.
