This article addresses the challenge of differentiating dental diseases with similar clinical signs, using periodontitis as an example. Symptomatic similarities between periodontitis, pulpitis, endodontic-periodontal diseases, and gingival hypoplasia often complicate diagnosis. The article analyzes the possibilities of accurate and precise diagnosis using modern diagnostic methods such as clinical examination, X-rays, CBCT, thermotesting, and others[12]. The importance of differential diagnosis for distinguishing diseases and ensuring effective treatment is emphasized.
