This course covers the Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) principles for the treatment of intrabony defects around teeth, which represent an anatomical sequela to the apical spread of periodontitis: GTR aims indeed to obtain an increase in the periodontal attachment level of a severely compromised tooth, a complete resolution of intrabony defects, a decrease in pocket depth and, finally, no or minimal decrease in gingival recession.
Detailed descriptions are given of both the biological rationale and the surgical protocol that underlie GTR.
Also, the diagnostic path and the multi-level prognostic factors evaluation are the subject of an in-depth discussion, as well as a detailed analysis of risk factors.
When it comes to the surgical approach, a detailed clinical flow chart leading to the right choice among the various techinques for GTR is presented and each surgical technique is showed following a “step by step” approach with the help of a large number of pictures and clinical videos.
Since GTR involves the use of barrier membranes, grafting of bone substitutes, and employment of biologically active regenerating materials (alone or in combination) a detailed regeneration strategy based on the properties of each biomaterial as well as the shape of the defect is addressed to help clinicians make informed choices. 
Clinical potential and limits for Guided Tissue Regeneration compared with other surgical techniques as well as the role of Supportive Periodonta Therapy (SPT) are also discussed.
The clinical efficacy and effectiveness of periodontal regenerative procedures is discussed on the basis of speaker’s personal experience and in the light of most recent high level scientific evidence.
