Application of biologically active material is needed to enhance reattachment or regeneration during periodontal surgery. This procedure is particularly useful for patients undergoing guided tissue regeneration or other regenerative procedures. For example, a patient with significant bone loss may benefit from the application of enamel matrix derivative materials to promote bone and tissue regeneration.
The primary benefit of applying biologically active materials is its ability to enhance reattachment and regeneration, improving the outcomes of periodontal surgery. By using materials such as porcine collagen or enamel matrix derivatives, clinicians can promote the formation of new bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament, restoring the natural architecture of the periodontium. This level of precision improves the likelihood of successful outcomes, particularly in cases of advanced periodontal disease or peri-implantitis. Additionally, these materials are biocompatible and safe, making them an ideal adjunct to surgical procedures.
For oral and maxillofacial surgeons, application of biologically active materials is valuable for enhancing the outcomes of periodontal or peri-implant surgery. Surgeons should ensure that the materials are applied accurately, following established protocols to maximize their effectiveness. Additionally, this treatment can be combined with other regenerative techniques, such as bone grafting, to enhance outcomes. By incorporating biologically active materials into the treatment plan, surgeons can ensure better outcomes for the patient.
