Course Description

Treatment of gingival recession may be performed through a variety of techniques and materials. It is important to the performance of any surgical procedure and implantation of any graft material leading to a cascade of events resulting in a series of biologic responses. Wound healing usually begins with an inflammatory phase, which can culminate in either periodontal repair or regeneration. Periodontal repair refers to the mechanism of healing, where reattachment of mucosa to tooth is mediated by either connective tissue and/or long junctional epithelium. On the other hand, regeneration entails restoration of the structures in their original form and function. Understanding the biologic basis of soft tissue regeneration provides clinicians with valuable insights to aid in improving the predictability of therapy.
