The Purpose of Periodontal regeneration is to rehabilitate the loss of supporting structure surrounding the tooth other than injury or periodontal disease. (Villar and Cochran, 2010).
Several corrective steps are implemented for the management of chronic periodontal disease, such as the first line of intervention which is the non-surgical treatment that consists of Oral hygiene instructions and removal of biofilms. (Reynolds et al., 2010: Table 1). After non-surgical phase of treatment once the tissue is healed, surgical techniques are to be considered for the management of the remaining pockets also known as residual pockets or to formulate a gingival apparatus that promotes plaque control. (Koop et al., 2002). However, if there is a loss of tissue it is quintessential to take into consideration regenerative procedures. (Rojas et al., 2019). Illustrated in figure 1; regeneration is a multifactorial approach which needs several steps such as appropriate patient selection based on the potentiality of wounding healing, also the extent of the periodontal tissue loss and the influence of the non-surgical regenerative methods. ( Rojas et al.,2019 ).
