Treatment of 3rd molar‐induced periodontal defects with guided tissue regeneration

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1997
Abstract Recent reports provide evidence of increased attachment levels when using guided tissue regeneration (GTR) techniques for the treatment of periodontal defects. Periodontal defects frequently occur at the distal aspect of mandibular 2nd molars which are next to mesioangular impacted 3rd molars that have oral communication.

The Effects of Guided Tissue Regeneration Membrane Placement on Healthy Periodontal Sites

Journal of Periodontology, 1993
This study investigates the effects of the placement of a bioresorbable Type I collagen barrier on clinically healthy sites. Ten human subjects, with at least one pair of matched periodontal defects included in a previous study, were investigated for the effect of guided tissue regeneration (GTR) membrane placement on adjacent healthy sites.

Guided tissue regeneration in periodontal therapy.

Northwest dentistry, 2001
In teeth where continued function requires additional periodontal support, optimal treatment requires not only controlling periodontal infection, but also regeneration of periodontal support lost to periodontal disease. Today, guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is a technique with significant clinical and histologic documentation of periodontal ...

Guided periodontal tissue regeneration (GPTR): an update.

Practical periodontics and aesthetic dentistry : PPAD, 1997
Periodontal therapy has three primary objectives--elimination of etiologic factors, repair or regeneration of the lost attachment apparatus, and prevention of further periodontal breakdown. Significant progress has occurred in the area of surgical periodontal therapy during the last two decades.

Periodontal pathogens on polytetrafluoroethylene membrane for guided tissue regeneration inhibit healing

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, 1995
Abstract This study determined the microbial composition of the apical parts of the expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membrane surfaces facing the gingiva and the tooth in guided tissue regeneration. Microbial and clinical features of 2‐to‐3 wall periodontal bony defects treated with membranes with and without concomitant use of systemic Augmentin ...

Biocompatibility and resorbability of a polylactic acid membrane for periodontal guided tissue regeneration

Biomaterials, 1993
The biocompatibility and degradation processes of biomembranes made of a mixture of a high molecular weight racemic polylactic acid (PLA50P) with 0, 10, 20 and 30% w/w racemic polylactic acid oligomers (PLA50p) were assessed for morphological changes in subcutaneous abdominal membrane implantations after 15, 21, 30 and 60 d in 45 Wistar rats.

Demineralized Dentin as a Semi‐Rigid Barrier for Guiding Periodontal Tissue Regeneration

Journal of Periodontology, 2015
Background: Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is an accepted approach in the correction of periodontal bone loss. Nonetheless, the deficiencies of commonly applied absorbable membrane, such as flexibility and limited osteoconductive and osteoinductive capability, still leave much room for improvement.

Chitosan-based dental barrier membrane for periodontal guided tissue regeneration and guided bone regeneration: A review

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules
Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and guided bone regeneration (GBR) are two common dental regenerative procedures used to repair periodontal defects caused by periodontitis. In both procedures, a barrier membrane is placed at the interface between the soft tissue and the periodontal defect, serving to impede the infiltration of soft tissue while ...

Guided tissue regeneration: the new frontier in periodontics.

Journal (Indiana Dental Association), 1993
The ideal goal of periodontal therapy is the reestablishment and regeneration of the lost periodontal tissues. Many different treatment regimens have been suggested to achieve this dream; however, most are unpredictable and highly debated in the periodontal literature. This paper discusses the most current philosophy in periodontal regeneration--guided
