To be considered a regenerative

modality, a material or technique must

HISTOLOGICALLY DEMONSTRATE that bone,

cementumand a functional periodontal ligament (A New Attachment

Apparatus) can be formed on a previously diseased

root surface.

World Workshop in Periodontics of theAmerican Academy of Periodontology

(1996)Requirements For A Periodontal Treatment

To Be Considered A Regenerative Procedure :

1. Animal Histological Studies revealing new cementum, periodontal ligament and bone.

2. Human Clinical Trials demonstrating improved clinical probing attachment and bone levels; and

3. Human Histological Studies - demonstrating new cementum, periodontal ligament and bone coronal to the former defect base

End-point Of TreatmentEnd-point Of Treatment

The goal of clinical research is to provide UNEQUIVOCAL EVIDENCE regarding the potential tangible benefits of a treatment.

Periodontal research cannot afford to keep stopping short of this goal

Increase in attachment gain for GTR over open flap debridement - 0.02 to 3.60 mm/mean difference 1.22 mm, 95%CI [0.8,1.64])

This value is not a valid estimate of effect because the heterogeneity is substantial and statistically significant.
