Course Description
The treatment of bone and periodontal defects with a regenerative therapy can be predictable. Our goal as clinicians is to optimize the therapeutic response and to reduce the incidence and extent of complications. The overall factors include pretreatment evaluation and diagnosis, surgical and post-surgical management. In addition, there are novel developments in regenerative dentistry which can improve ease of use and enhance treatment outcomes
