Abstract:
Palatoradicular groove is a developmental anomaly of the maxillary incisors. It is related to periodontitis with or without pulpal pathosis, depending on the depth, extent and complexity of groove. If associated with localized periodontitis and pulp necrosis, termed as combined periodontal endodontic lesion. It is a linear depression, present on the palatal aspect of root. This linear depression provides habitat for plaque and calculus, which is a major contributing factor in the progression of periodontal disease. Present case report, highlights the role of periodontal intervention in the treatment of case complicated with the presence of palato-radicular groove.
