Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) revealed a communication between the labial groove and the periapical lesion, whereas the palatal groove was isolated. A comprehensive three-phase treatment protocol was implemented, including root canal therapy combined with apical surgery, guided tissue regeneration (GTR) using Bio-Oss and Bio-Gide, and anterior esthetic rehabilitation through digital smile design and full-ceramic restorations.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>After 4 years of follow-up, the probing depth improved from 10 to 1\u2005mm, with radiographic and CBCT evaluations confirming complete bone regeneration and reattachment of periodontal tissues. Functional and esthetic outcomes remained stable, and no recurrence or inflammation was detected during maintenance visits.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case highlights the diagnostic value of CBCT imaging and the effectiveness of an evidence-based multidisciplinary approach in managing complex labial\u2013palatal dual-groove anomalies. Early diagnosis, bio-ceramic sealing, regenerative periodontal therapy, and meticulous long-term maintenance are essential for achieving predictable and durable clinical success in developmental radicular groove-associated lesions.<\/jats:p>\n
