Abstract :
In order to restore function and appearance, periodontal therapy seeks to remove the underlying causes and, when practical, replace lost soft and hard tissues. True regeneration, which involves new bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament, necessitates surgical intervention and tissue engineering techniques, even though non-surgical therapies can accomplish restoration (such as long junctional epithelium). Barrier membranes are used in the surgical procedures known as Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) and Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) to stop epithelial migration and promote the selective repopulation of regenerative cells such as fibroblasts, osteoblasts, and cementoblasts. Regenerative results are significantly influenced by membrane characteristics such pore size, permeability, and architecture. Although the ideal hole size is still up for debate, too big of a pore can weaken the membrane and permit unwanted cell migration.
