Abstract
Endo-perio lesions present complex diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to combined endodontic and periodontal pathology when managed in isolation. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate multimodal treatment with laser curettage, crown rehabilitation and orthodontic therapy in 48 teeth from 42 patients. AI-assisted CBCT assessments showed 78.4±12.3% periapical lesion reduction, 45.6±8.9 HU bone density increase and 2.84±0.92 mm periodontal bone gain at 12 months. The integrated protocol achieved superior healing across compartments compared to traditional sequential approaches. AI-guided laser-prosthetic-orthodontic management advances endo-perio care by establishing a predictable, comprehensive standard with enhanced radiographic outcomes.
