Endodontic and dentistry surgical procedure has surpassed the success rates for ancient dental medicine and dentistry surgical procedures. Achieving primary closure with the grafts contains a positive result on guided tissue regeneration (GTR) outcome. New techniques of dentistry microsurgery, such as minimally invasive papilla conserving flaps with passive internal pad stitching, have managed to obtain 90% primary flap closure over grafted sites. Root surface treatment and acquisition has conjointly shown to be helpful for GTR. The present case report describes a case of the localized primary periodontal lesion with secondary endodontic involvement in a mandibular first molar. The case was managed by root canal therapy followed by a periodontal regenerative procedure using GTR technique. Two years follow-up without replacement of the tooth with crown showed healing of the lesion with a minor defect in the restoration which was replaced by tooth-colored restoration.
