Abstract

The pathological processes that affect the structures of the periodontum may have different causes but present with a similar symptoms. There are not patognomonic signs that tell us the specific etiology. There fore, it is important to use all the avaible diagnostic tests in order to find out the specific origin and thus institute the apropiate therapy. Only in this way, the diagnostic and therapeutic failures can be avoided. In this publication, the different conections between the pulp and periodontal ligament are reviewed as well as the pathogenic processes involved in endo-periodontal conditions, emphasizing their differential diagnosis, prognosis and therapy.
