The understanding of periodontal and endodontic diseases is one of the crucial and controversial topics for the clinicians in terms of clinical evaluation, diagnosis, treatment plan, and prognosis which is encountered when both the lesions are combined. A thorough understanding of the perio-endo lesion is important for accurate diagnosis and to rule out the primary etiological factor for perio-endo lesions. The communication pathway for the spread of infection in between pulpal and periodontal tissue may be though the pathogenic bacteria or through the iatrogenic factors. Even the clinical picture of perio-endo lesion may suggest the multiple sources of pathology and treatment for perio-endo lesion depends on the causative factor and correct diagnosis. The present case series shows the importance of PRF with DFDBA allograft having potential of periodontal regeneration through growth factor and BMP’s. this case series presenting a 6 month follow up of primary endodontic lesion with secondary periodontal involvement which are treated by surgical open flap debridement and a combination of PRF and DFDBA allograft and evaluated both clinically and radiographically.
