Treatment Approach to Generalized Severe Periodontitis With the Potential for Additional Tooth Loss: A Case Report
1Department of Periodontology and Dental Implantology, Medical University of Varna, Varna, BGR.
Abstract:
Generalized severe periodontitis, with the potential for additional tooth loss, is one of the most common forms of periodontitis today. Early diagnosis and treatment approaches are of utmost importance. Therapeutic measures must be well thought out and follow a strict sequence. This case report presents the treatment of a patient with stage 3 periodontitis and includes information on both the non-surgical part of the therapy and the surgical intervention in a single area with an existing vertical bone defect. An innovative method of regenerative therapy (guided tissue regeneration with barrier collagen membrane and autogenous platelet-rich plasma) was selected for the treatment of the vertical bone defect in the medial zone of tooth #46.
