Periodontal plastic surgery evolved from mucogingival surgery, offering techniques for root coverage, ridge augmentation, and crown lengthening. This advanced field reconstructs and regenerates lost oral tissues.

Area of Science:

  • Periodontology
  • Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery

Background:

  • Mucogingival surgery techniques advanced significantly in the 1980s.
  • The field evolved to address various esthetic and functional concerns in the periodontium.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the evolution and scope of periodontal plastic surgery.
  • To highlight its applications in root coverage, ridge augmentation, and crown lengthening.

Main Methods:

  • Review of historical developments in mucogingival and periodontal plastic surgery.
  • Description of surgical techniques for tissue reconstruction and regeneration.

Main Results:

  • Periodontal plastic surgery encompasses diverse techniques for esthetic and functional oral rehabilitation.
