Periodontal surgery is the clinical procedure which enables direct surgical access to the root surfaces of teeth affected by periodontal attachment loss where affected root surfaces remain subgingival. Direct access allows visual confirmation that the root surfaces have been effectively debrided.
Before commencing this session you should have knowledge of:
- The aetiology and pathology of periodontitis
- The clinical management of periodontitis
You should also have practical experience of root surface debridement in patients with periodontitis.
