Abstract
Regenerative therapies in periodontics have shown great potential in restoring damaged periodontal tissues. Techniques such as guided tissue regeneration (GTR) and guided bone regeneration (GBR) have been effective in promoting the regeneration of periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone. These approaches create a conducive environment for cell repopulation and exclusion of non-osteogenic cells, leading to successful periodontal tissue regeneration. Tissue engineering approaches, utilizing stem cells, growth factors, and biomaterial scaffolds, have also shown promise in regenerating multiple periodontal tissues simultaneously. However, challenges such as membrane exposure and infection need to be addressed. Emerging regenerative techniques, including enamel matrix derivatives (EMDs), stem cell-based therapies, growth factor delivery systems, and gene therapies, offer innovative strategies for periodontal defect treatment. Optimization of delivery systems, refinement of biomaterials, and advancements in gene therapy and tissue-specific biomaterials may further enhance the regenerative capacity of periodontal tissues. Despite challenges, regenerative therapies have the potential to revolutionize periodontics and improve clinical outcomes by addressing the root cause of periodontal diseases and promoting long-lasting tissue regeneration.
