Abstract: Aims: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of endodontic-periodontal lesions (EPLs) and EPL grades 1–3 without root damage in patients with and without periodontitis according to the 2017 World Workshop on the Classification of Periodontal and Peri-Implant Diseases. Methods: This study included 500 panoramic radiographs from the Faculty of Dentistry at the University of İstanbul Medipol. Each radiograph was evaluated by a calibrated investigator for diagnostic signs. Patients’ age, sex, total number of teeth, total number of implants, number of filled teeth, number of missing teeth, number of caries, presence of fixed prosthesis, full mouth periodontal diagnosis and determination of the region with the highest radiographic bone loss without EPL were recorded in all patients. For patients with EPL, the presence of EPL and its grading according to the 2017 World Workshop on Classification of Periodontal and Peri-Implant Diseases, the presence of furcation involvement, degree of furcation involvement, the presence of caries in the related tooth, and restoration in the relevant tooth material were also evaluated. Results: The mean age was higher for patients with EPL teeth than without EPL teeth (p
