Regenerative Surgery- Past, Present & Future

This book explains an exploration of the evolution, current techniques, and future innovations in regenerative periodontal surgery aimed at restoring lost tooth-supporting tissues. The advent of Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR), bone grafts, and biologically active agents like Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Emdogain marked major progress. Current techniques include Guided Bone Regeneration, platelet concentrates, minimally invasive surgery, stem cell therapy, and tissue engineering, all aimed at predictable regeneration. Future directions focus on gene therapy, nanotechnology, personalized periodontics, artificial intelligence, and 3D bioprinting. Together, these advances are transforming periodontal surgery from repair-oriented methods to biologically driven, technology-enhanced, patient-specific regeneration of both function and structure.
