An Overview Of The Patient Education Impaction, Through Imaging Techniques And Oral Hygiene On The Prognosis Of Combined Endoperio Lesions

Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the impact of patient education, advanced imaging techniques, and oral hygiene on the prognosis of combined endodontic-periodontal (endo-perio) lesions.

Combined endo-perio lesions present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to the interconnection between pulp and periodontal tissues. Patient education improves treatment compliance and oral hygiene adherence, fostering better outcomes. Advanced imaging techniques, particularly cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), enhance diagnostic accuracy and guide treatment planning. Consistent oral hygiene practices, supported by professional guidance and adjunctive therapies, prevent reinfection and support tissue healing. Integrating these elements ensures a comprehensive, patient-centered approach, improving prognosis and reducing recurrence of endo-perio lesions.
