Regenerative materials in Periodontics

Bol

Regenerative materials in periodontics are used to restore lost periodontal structures-alveolar bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament-by promoting true tissue regeneration rather than mere repair. These materials include bone grafts (autografts, allografts, xenografts, and alloplasts) that provide osteogenic, osteoinductive, or osteoconductive properties. Barrier membranes used in guided tissue regeneration (resorbable and non-resorbable) prevent epithelial migration and allow selective cell repopulation. Biologic agents such as enamel matrix derivatives, platelet concentrates (PRP, PRF), and growth factors enhance cellular proliferation and differentiation. Newer tissue-engineering approaches combine scaffolds, signaling molecules, and cells to improve clinical outcomes. Together, these regenerative materials play a crucial role in managing periodontal defects and improving long-term tooth prognosis.I am a periodontist dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of periodontal diseases, with a strong focus on preserving natural dentition. My clinical interests include periodontal regeneration, management of periodontal and peri-implant diseases.
