I was wondering what are some advancements in periodontics?

Periodontic advances: Two come to mind. Fist, with the increase in the number of dental implants placed, better designs, surfaces, choices with dental implant fixtures as well as restorative options and techniques. Secondly, additives such as growth factors to increase the success of bone grafting and regeneration.
