- Abstract
Although technique-sensitive, periodontal regeneration seems efficient in treating intrabony defects: nonetheless, complete success can be difficult to attain. Seven keys for successful periodontal regeneration of intrabony defects, presented herein, encapsulate an evidence-based treatment planning and surgical protocol for achieving predictable outcomes. Utilizing a step-by-step approach, the seven keys offer periodontists a checklist for treating intrabony defects and include protocols for the planning, surgical, and postoperative phases of the treatment. This article describes the use of the seven-key checklist to achieve predictable regenerative outcomes at short-term and long-term follow-ups. A case report demonstrates the application of these seven keys.
