Scientific evidence that has been emerging over the last decade has provided the basis for a radical change in the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of periodontal diseases. A new era in periodontal research and practice is being defined along the following lines: Better understanding of disease. Emerging needs. Novel treatment strategies and therapeutics. Choice between multiple therapeutic modalities. The purpose of this manuscript is to critically discuss changes in understanding and to provide a rationale to change daily practice.
