WHY

PERIAPICAL GRANULOMA BECOME ASYMPTOMATIC ? From: n l <nleow@...> Sent: Wednesday, 7 March 2012, 15:34 Subject: RE: Periodontal tt goal important

The aim of periodontal therapy is to re-establish the original architecture i.e. obtain a connective tissue and epithelial attachment. This is "regeneration". Following surgical or non-surgical therapy, it has been shown that actually more often than not, we only get an epithelial attachment (aka a long junctional epithelium), which has been shown to be stable over time. The is known as "repair".And yes, the aim of GTR is exactly that - regeneration of the connective tissue and epithelial attachment.Ideal = connective tissue + epitheliumReality = Long junctional epithelium only.

Hi miralI actually got your point ,what you want to ask.Definitely,it is much better to achieve epithelial attachment and connective tissue attachment.As it forms your biological width.I think maintaining the depth of epithelial attachment without further loss of attachment becomes a goal after flap surgery of a pocket. Aqsa has already explained it.Its a huge topic i guess and we cant explain things in just few lines.

Thanks Fatima may be I didn't make myself clear,I meant is it an epi or ct attachment?in Churchill say both in MD say only epi attach is the goal NOT CT ATTACHMENT???Sent from my iPadOn 7 Mar 2012, at 11:11, Aqsa Fatima Burki <aqsaburki@...> wrote:

both are correct, the ptt involves many complex procedures including flap surgery and regeneration, the aim of flap surgery is to promote healing by junctional epithelium ( after root cleaning and bone shaping) whereas the regeneration involves methods to regenerate the tissues lost through periodontal disease which included regeneration of cementum, bone and pdl. PTT also includes reducing gingival recession by various methods where aim is for a more coronal level attachment. From: miral_hasan <miral_hasan@...>

Hi all

Is the aim of period tt is to reduce pocket by encouraging a new epi and /oronnective tissue attachment at a more coronal level?churchill222

OR only epithelial as mentioned in mastersdentistry where CT attach is not required at all?

Thanks
