Practitioners of periodontics must have familiarity with the various methods of optical magnification and, ultimately, the surgical microscope, if they are going to refine their basic surgical techniques with improved visual acuity, as other areas of medicine and dentistry are doing. Macroscopic versus microscopic vision determines the degree to which surgeons can handle soft and hard tissue for primary wound closure and rapid, non-traumatic healing. Subtle basic microsuturing techniques offer vast improvement in wound closure through magnification and good visual feedback, as opposed to the tactile information traditionally taught in conventional suturing. Periodontal microsurgery began with mucogingival surgery, but has application in every area of periodontal therapy for those who become proficient in this challenging new area of technology.
如果牙周病医生想要像其他医学和牙科领域那样，通过提高视力来完善其基本手术技术，就必须熟悉各种光学放大方法，最终还要熟悉手术显微镜。宏观视觉与微观视觉决定了外科医生在进行一期伤口闭合以及实现快速、无创愈合时处理软组织和硬组织的能力。与传统缝合中传授的触觉信息不同，精细的基本显微缝合技术通过放大和良好的视觉反馈，在伤口闭合方面有了很大改进。牙周显微外科手术始于膜龈手术，但对于那些精通这一具有挑战性的新技术领域的人来说，它在牙周治疗的各个领域都有应用。
