Sumario:With the increase in preventive and restorative dentistry, there is also an increase in the iatrogenic conditions that occur in modern dental practice. The goal of modern dentistry is to provide patients with a holistic solution by providing functional restoration. This case report will highlight one such case where a tooth was diagnosed as having a gingival overgrowth through a perforation during prior endodontic treatment. Proper diagnosis and treatment planning helped restore a tooth that would have been lost.
