[Endo-periodontal relations. Microbiological and clinical aspects].

Periodontics and endodontics share common objectives and common field of interest. Both disciplines treat lesions of the periodontal tissues; in their marginal aspect the first, in the periapical aspect the latter. These relationships have not been well understood for a long time. This article is a review of the literature on the topic aimed at clarifying the anatomic, microbiological, pathogenetic relationship in the periodontal and endodontic lesions.

[Prosthetic rehabilitation of periodontal cases].

The rehabilitation of a periodontal patient not only must achieve a condition of health, but also a good masticatory function and an acceptable esthetic. Therapy of such patients often involves a multidisciplinary approach. The correct succession of these treatments influences the result of the case. A case is presented to illustrate the treatment sequence in period-prosthetic cases.

Soft-tissue plastic surgery.

Soft-tissue plastic surgery was previously referred to as mucogingival surgery by Friedman (Tex Dent J 1957, 75:358-362). This term referred to any surgery "designated to preserve attached gingiva, to remove frena or muscle attachment, and to increase the depth of the vestibule." The aim of this type of surgery was to maintain an adequate mucogingival complex, focusing on the importance of the amount of attached gingiva. Soft tissue plastic surgery is important not only for reasons of health, but also for cosmetic purposes.
