Introduction. Surgical management of infrabony defects is an invasive procedure, frequently requiring the use of adjunctive material such as grafs or biologics, which is time-consuming and associated with expense and morbidity to the patient. Lasers in periodontal regeneration have been reported in the literature, with each wavelength having potential benefts through diferent laser-tissue interactions. Te purpose of this case series was to assess the efcacy of a new dual-wavelength protocol in the management of infrabony defects. Materials and Methods. 32 defects (one in each patient) were treated using ultrasonic debridement, followed by fapless application of Erbium, Chromium:Yttrium, Scandium, Gallium, Garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG) laser (wavelength 2780 nm), and fnal application of diode laser (wavelength 940 nm). Pocket depths (PD) were measured afer 6 months and repeat radiographs taken afer one year.

  • Management of Grade II Furcation Defect in Mandibular Molar with Alloplastic Bone Graftand Bioresorbable Guided Tissue Regeneration Membrane: a Case Report
    Case Report Management of grade II furcation defect in mandibular molar with alloplastic bone graftand bioresorbable guided tissue regeneration membrane: A case report Mrinalini Ag. Bhatnagar1,*, Deepa D2 1PG Student, 2Professor, Dept. of Periodontology, Subharti Dental College & Hospital, Meerut *Corresponding Author: Email: [email protected] Abstract Background: Management of furcation represent one of the greatest challenges in periodontal therapy due to limited accessibility and complex anatomy of furcalareas.The main aim of regenerative therapy is regeneration of periodontal hard and soft-tissues, including formation of a new attachment apparatus. Various reconstructive procedures have been employed over years to achieve this goal. Aim: To evaluate the efficacy of alloplastic bone graft along with GTR membrane in the management of mandibular grade II furcation defect. Materials and method: Grade II mandibular furcation defect was treated using bone graft Ostin™ along with bioresorbable collagen GTR membrane Periocol®. Evaluation of clinical parameters, probing depth (PD), clinial attachment level (CAL), radiovisuography was done preoperatively and at three and six months postoperatively. Results and Conclusion: Six months postoperative measurements demonstrated reduction in probing depths and bone fill in the region of furcation defect. The results observed showed that combined treatment modalities using alloplastic bone graft and GTR membrane are beneficial for the treatment of mandibular grade II furcation defects. Keywords: Bone graft, Collagen membrane, Furcation, Guided tissue regeneration. Introduction foreign body response.

Till date, a number of classifications have been proposed present limitations, because of varied anatomy of the furcation defects thatmake it almost impossible to correlate all possible clinical scenarios in a comprehensive and concise manner. This article reviews the current classifications for furcation involvements and clinical decision making for optimizing diagnosis and prognosis of interradicular defects. The classifications of Kolte and Pilloni(2018) are a more efficient guide to the clinician in proper diagnosis, treatment planning and provide a better understanding of furcation involvements.A more concise and less explanatory new classification system can be proposed.
