Abstract
Orthodontics is a periodontal treatment. “Guided orthodontic regeneration” (GOR) procedures use orthodontic movements in perio-restorative patients. The GOR technique includes a guided orthodontic “soft tissue” regeneration (GOTR) and a guided orthodontic “bone” regeneration (GOBR) with a plastic soft tissue approach and a regenerating reality. The increased amount of soft tissue gained with orthodontic movement can be used for subsequent periodontal regenerative techniques. The increased amount of bone can as well improve primary implant stability and, eventually, simplify a GTR technique to regenerate soft tissues, to restore tooth with external resorption in aesthetic zone or to extract a tooth to create new hard-soft tissue for adjacent teeth.
