Lecture Synopsis There have been many advances in periodontal concepts, graft materials and surgical techniques in the past few years. The first lecture will focus on simple periodontal surgical techniques that can enhance restorative outcomes. We will then focus on treating mucogingival defects such as gingival recession with various soft tissue graft techniques. Research in the past few years has focused on regeneration of the periodontium with materials such as Enamel matrix derivative and Platelet derived growth factor. Clinical and research based evidence will be presented on these new modalities of treatment. With the advent of new regenerative therapies and advances in implant therapy, dentists are suddenly faced with a variety of options for a tooth with a guarded prognosis. Are implants really the way to go? The rationale for the various modes of treatment will be explained and discussed.
