Professor Dimitra Sakellari
Ass. Prof. Dr Aikaterini-Elisavet Doufex
Ass. Prof Leonidas BatasCurrent guidelines for non-surgical and surgical periodontal treatment
This panel will focus on current approaches for non-surgical and surgical periodontal treatment, based on the latest guidelines as published by the European Federation of Periodontology (EFP)in 2020. The latest classification (2018) of periodontal diseases which includes four stages and three grades of periodontitis will be presented and compared with the previous one (1999). According to the guidelines, four sequential steps are included in treatment of Periodontitis stages I-III. The first step comprises of the control of local factors for dental plaque retention and the professional removal of dental plaque and supragingival calculus, as well as control of systemic factors affecting the disease. The second step is meticulous root scaling and planning in non-responding sites with the potential supplementary use of antiseptics or antibiotics or other adjunctive procedures . The third step comprises the first and second step and moreover the surgical therapy in active periodontal pockets. Finally, the most important step is the maintenance step of periodontal treatment which should be adjusted for every different case and lasts throughout life. All steps and procedures which are well- documented,according to the EFP, will be fully described.
