Overview

Proof-of-concept report demonstrates a new reconstructive technique for periodontal defects, suggesting potential for preservation of teeth.

Key Points

  • This proof-of-concept report aims to introduce the PerioTAG technique for treating non-contained vertical periodontal defects.
  • Three patients with non-contained vertical periodontal defects in the anterior maxilla were treated with the PerioTAG technique.
  • The technique involves using an autogenous corticocancellous block graft from the maxillary tuberosity.
  • Clinical and radiographic outcomes were evaluated over follow-up periods up to three years.
  • All cases showed stabilization of non-contained vertical periodontal defects and preservation of affected teeth.
  • Clinical healing was uneventful with stable periodontal conditions reported during follow-up.
  • Radiographic evaluations indicated minimal impact on esthetic appearance.
