Abstract
It has been very nicely quoted by Ambroise Paré that ‘’There are five duties of surgery: to remove what is superfluous, to restore what has been dislocated, to separate what has grown together, to reunite what has been divided, and to redress the defects of nature.1 Ambroise pare in the year 1537 gave rise to a revolution in surgical techniques in the medical field. Defining surgery at the 21st century has been only possible by his constant dedication and hard work. Surgery has been defined as the act and art of treating diseases or injuries by manual operation. If this broad definition is used, nearly all periodontal treatment, from hard or soft tissue curettage through osseous surgical procedures, falls under the heading of "periodontal surgery". In basic term "periodontal surgery" is specified only till surgical manipulations of periodontal soft tissues and bone and not carrying out debridement and root planning.2
