The integration of periodontal considerations with restorative planning is now the standard of care. Instilling motivation toward prevention continues to be one of our most challenging goals. A stable healthy periodontium and minimum restorative needs are the resulting rewards. With the use of available knowledge and microbial testing for both periodontitis and caries susceptibility, we now can offer our patients a higher likelihood of success in retaining natural teeth and implants.
