During assessment of a mandibular molar with cuspal fracture symptoms, a single narrow 8 mm pocket is detected on the mesial aspect with otherwise healthy periodontium and normal probing depths elsewhere.
Select the correct answer
A.
The isolated pocket likely represents localised aggressive periodontitis and warrants systemic antibiotic therapy prior to definitive management.
1
B.
The finding is consistent with a lateral periodontal cyst and cross-sectional imaging should be arranged before any restorative intervention.
2
C.
The pocket depth reflects food packing from a failing restoration and debridement with occlusal adjustment is the primary management.
3
D.
The isolated nature of the pocket suggests an endodontic-periodontic lesion of purely endodontic origin with a favourable prognosis following root canal treatment.
4
E.
The narrow isolated pocket indicates that the crack has propagated apically below the gingival margin, establishing a bacterial pathway and conferring a poor prognosis for tooth retention.
