Summary. The relationship between periodontal disease and pulpal disease is reviewed by first considering their pathogenesis and differential diagnosis. The author then proposes a classification of lesions based mainly on their aetiology; this is primary endodontic lesion, primary periodontal lesion and combined lesion. The treatment of the various types is described in detail.
