Abstract

RODRIGUEZ-ORTEGA, L. et al. Endodontic-implant pathology: concept, types, diagnosis, treatment and prevention. Avances en Periodoncia [online]. 2013, vol.25, n.2, pp.83-90. ISSN 2340-3209.

The implant-endodontic pathology is described in the literature as a cause of apical periimplantitis, understood to be an osteolytic lesion that appears in the apical region of the implant during the coronal osseointegration normally. This implant-endodontic pathology researches the relation of endodontic and implants apical lesions leading to infection contiguity between teeth and implants. The first way of contamination is implant-tooth, when the implant placement causes necrosis of the adjacent tooth and subsequent contamination of the implant; the second way is tooth-implant, when there is an exacerbation of latent apical lesion in a tooth, root canal or not, after placing an implant adjacent to it, resulting in apical periimplantitis later. In this work we have summoned the cases of occurring periimplantitis by apical residual infection present in the socket of an extracted tooth with apical periodontal pathology and replaced by an implant. This review aims to make an update of the relationship between periimplantitis and endodontics.

Keywords : Apical periimplantitis; apical periodontitis; endodontic disease; implant-endodontic pathology; retrograde periimplantitis.
