Understanding the role of resective osseous surgical procedure in chronic periodontitis patients

Variety of treatment approaches have been developed and used to treat periodontal diseases associated with attachment loss. While the goal of periodontal surgical treatments is to access the root surfaces for proper debridement, the decision to remove or reshape the supporting bone has been controversial. Osseous resective surgery necessitates following the use of strict guidelines for proper recontouring of the alveolar bone and proper management and positioning of the gingival tissues so that the results from osseous resective surgery are highly predictable
