Rational periodontal therapy by papillectomy.

N G Clarke, R S Hirsch

    Australian Dental Journal
    |October 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Papillectomy improves access for periodontal therapy by enabling thorough calculus removal and root surface preparation. This technique facilitates epithelial and fibroblast reattachment for successful periodontal treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Periodontology
    • Dental Surgery

    Background:

    • Periodontal therapy success relies on calculus removal and root surface preparation.
    • Endotoxin removal is crucial for healing and cellular reattachment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the papillectomy technique for enhancing periodontal therapy.
    • To assess its efficacy in improving access for root surface preparation.

    Main Methods:

    • The papillectomy technique was employed to gain access to interproximal tooth surfaces.
    • This allowed for direct visualization and instrumentation of root surfaces.

    Main Results:

    • Papillectomy provided excellent visual and instrumental access to interproximal areas.
    • Optimal preparation of cemental surfaces was achieved without extensive surgery.

    Conclusions:

    • Papillectomy is an effective technique for facilitating periodontal therapy.
    • It enables thorough root surface preparation, promoting favorable conditions for healing.
