ABSTRACT
Successful management of periodontitis is considered to be dependent on early diagnosis, targeted antimicrobial therapy and modifying the tissue architecture that is conducive to long-term maintenance. Osseous defects present a challenge in periodontal practice and successful treatment depends primarily on selection of the correct technique and materials. This clinical study presents the cases treated with different techniques and with same materials. The periodontal furcation defect was filled up with Nova Bone bone graft substitute and covered with a restorable collagen GTR membrane. The results in all the cases discussed here are satisfactory and have shown long-term stability emphasizing the importance of selection of technique and material. Use of Nova Bone Dental Bone graft Morsels with bioresorbable collagen membrane showed significant improved outcomes in regeneration of Grade 2 Subclass B furcation defects while treating a periodontitis patient.
Keywords: Periodontal Osseous Defects, Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR), Nova Bone bone grafts, Colo Gide Membrane.
