Cell-to-cell Communication: Periodontal Regeneration

Regenerating is not filling a defect: it requires cementum, ligament and bone to reorganise in the right order and at the same time. Bernd Stadlinger and Hendrik Terheyden devote this multimedia instalment of the Cell-to-Cell Communication series to periodontal regeneration, following the cells and the signals that govern the process. The register is visual and scientific at once, geared more to understanding the biological basis of treatment than to describing surgical technique. A sound support for team training and for explaining to the patient why regeneration has indications and limits alike. In English.
