Periodontal Osseous Defect Management Modalities: A Literature Review
Ruby Bhatti [2] | Janmeet Randhawa | Arun Vashisht
Abstract: Periodontal procedures aim to prevent further attachment loss and predictably restore the periodontal supporting structures that are lost because of disease or trauma in a way that the architecture and function of the lost structures can be reestablished. Conventional nonsurgical therapy and periodontal flap procedures successfully halt the progression of periodontal disease but result in soft tissue recession that leads to poor esthetics in the anterior dentition. Moreover, conventional periodontal therapy often results in residual pockets usually inaccessible to adequate cleaning, which negatively affects the long - term prognosis of the treated tooth. These compromised outcomes can be avoided or minimized by periodontal regenerative procedures that restore the lost periodontal structures. This article presents a brief review on current knowledge of different periodontal regeneration modalities.
