Abstract

Tooth-related factors, such as cervical enamel projections, enamel pearls and palatal grooves are contributing factors to periodontal disease. Accessory root formation anomalies are rarely seen. This report is a case presentation of a 63‑year‑old male with chronic periodontitis. An accessory root-like structure with a 7mm probing depth on the mesio-palatinal surface of the root of maxillar left lateral incisor was identified. The accessory root-like structure was surgically excised after phase I periodontal therapy and endodontic treatment. Periodontal healing was uneventful and periodontal pocket reduced from 7 mm to 4 mm 3 months after surgery. Early recognition of these dental abnormalities has a great clinical significance in effectively treating periodontitis.

Özet

Servikal mine uzantıları, mine incileri ve palatal yivler gibi diş ile ilişkili faktörler periodontal hastalık oluşumuna neden olabilirler. Aksesuar kök oluşumu nadir görülen anomalilerdendir. Bu rapor kronik periodontitisli 63 yaşındaki erkek hastanın vaka sunumudur. Maksiller sol yan keser dişin kökünün mesio-palatinal yüzeyinde 7 mm cep derinliği ile birlikte aksesuar kök benzeri yapı tanımlanmıştır. Bu aksesuar kök benzeri yapı faz I periodontal tedavi ve endodontik tedavi sonrası cerrahi olarak eksize edilmiştir. Cerrahi sonrası periodontal iyileşme sorunsuzdu ve periodontal cep derinliği cerrahiden 3 ay sonra 7mm’den 4mm’ye düşmüştür. Bu dental anomalilerin erken tespiti, periodontitisin etkin tedavisinde büyük klinik öneme sahiptir
