Decision Trees for Soft Tissue Augmentation Procedures Proposed by the American Academy of Periodontology

Abstract

As part of the efforts of the recent AAP workshop on Enhancing Periodontal Health Through Regenerative Approaches, two of the five study groups formed for this meeting together with the systematic reviews and consensus reports prepared (published at the Journal of Periodontology), the Practical Applications paper (published at Clinical Advances in Periodontics), decision trees for the different surgical clinical scenarios were developed to assist clinicians in understanding of periodontal regenerative approaches. But why?
