  • Title: Multidisciplinary care: periodontal aspects to treatment planning the anterior esthetic zone.
    Author: Ravon NA, Handelsman M, Levine D.
    Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 2008 Aug; 36(8):575-84. PubMed ID: 18814780.
    Abstract:
    The field of periodontology has changed dramatically during the past 30 years. The goal of periodontal therapy is not only to establish and maintain the dentition and the periodontium free of any oral infections, but also to provide an environment with optimal function and esthetics. Esthetics has become an integral portion of the overall treatment goal in periodontics. This article discusses the role of periodontal plastic and reconstructive surgery in treatment planning the anterior esthetic zone in interdisciplinary dental care.
