Periodontal regenerative therapy aims to restore lost supporting structures, including alveolar bone, periodontal ligament, and root cementum. It is indicated in specific osseous defects where biological potential for regeneration exists.
The procedure often involves bone grafts, guided tissue regeneration membranes, or bioactive biomaterials that stimulate new tissue formation. Proper case selection is a determining factor for clinical success.
Detailed radiographic diagnosis and morphological evaluation of the defect allow clinicians to plan the most appropriate technique for each clinical situation.
Clot stability and infection control are critical factors for successful regeneration. Careful surgical handling and precise suturing promote optimal healing conditions.
Postoperative care includes strict plaque control and regular periodontal maintenance. Patient cooperation is essential to preserve the results achieved and prevent reinfection.
Regenerative therapy represents a significant advancement in modern periodontology. When applied under appropriate criteria, it not only halts disease progression but also partially restores lost structures, improving prognosis and long-term functional stability.
