Bone regeneration procedures aim to reconstruct intra bony defects after periodontal pathologies.
They can be performed using autogenous bone or xenographs to fill the intra bony pockets. Regeneration membranes which isolate gingival healing from bone healing (which is slower) can also be used.
However, no one of these procedures can replace dental plaque (bacteria) removal from the gingival crevice after each food uptake.
