Abstract: Aim: The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of various intracanal medicaments used during endodontic treatment on periodontal attachment levels in concurrent endodontic-periodontal diseases without communication. Materials and Methods: Hundred teeth with mixed endodontic-periodontal lesions were randomly assigned to four groups: Test Group 1 (calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] + iodoform), Test Group 2(2% chlorhexidine + Ca(OH)2), Test group 3(Triple Antibiotic Paste), and Control Group (no intracanal medicament). Standard procedures were used to perform root canal therapy (RCT). Teeth in test groups were treated with the appropriate medications for 28 days before to obturation. Baseline characteristics were recorded, and follow-up assessments were conducted at three, six, and 12 months. Parameters such as reduction in apical radiolucency, presence of periapical healing, bleeding on probing (BOP) percentage, clinical attachment level (CAL), and periodontal depth were evaluated. Results: All three groups showed significant improvement in PD, CAL, %BOP, and PAI scores (P
