Summary

Considering the beneficiary properties of both Chlorhexidine (CHX) and Metronidazole (MTZ) such as property of substantivity and diffusion of these drugs on the external surfaces through the anatomical communication channels in between the root canals and periodontium, may be utilized as an alternative approach for the delivery of drug ( intracanal medicament) in the deep periodontal pockets in concurrent endodontic- periodontic lesion with communication lesions. Thus the aim of study is to conduct a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate and compare the effects of CHX-MTZ combination with chlorhexidine alone as an intracanal medicament on periodontal healing in concurrent endodontic- periodontic lesion with communication.
