Abstract

Treatment of chronic periodontitis represents a significant health care challenge, especially at a time when periodontal-restorative dilemmas exist as to whether to save a tooth with limited periodontium or extract it and place a dental implant. Periodontally compromised but treated teeth are known to have survival rates equal to those of implants in well-maintained patients.
