Area of Science:

  • Periodontology
  • Dental Science
  • Oral Health Research

Background:

  • Periodontal diseases understanding has evolved significantly.
  • Key research findings include etiology, pathogenesis, and genetic/environmental susceptibility.
  • Systemic implications of periodontal infections are increasingly recognized.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent advances in periodontal science and practice.
  • To highlight key research findings and their impact on therapy.
  • To discuss the development of evidence-based periodontology.

Main Methods:

  • Review of recent advances in periodontal science and practice.
  • Emphasis on findings from randomized controlled clinical trials.
  • Analysis of changes in medical and surgical therapy.

Main Results:

  • Radical changes in understanding periodontal diseases.
  • New prospects for periodontal therapy (medical and surgical).
  • Development of evidence-based periodontology through clinical trials.

Conclusions:

  • Advances in understanding periodontitis etiology, pathogenesis, and susceptibility.
  • Recognition of periodontal infections' systemic links.
  • Significant practice changes driven by regenerative surgery, plastic surgery, bone regeneration, and soft tissue management, especially for implants.
