Periodontics overlaps regularly with the other dental disciplines and plays an important part in comprehensive dentistry. During the last decades a world-wide outgrowing research activity in basic science as well as in clinical research has contributed to a better understanding of the complexity of periodontal problems. The situation of periodontology in Germany must be improved. In order to obtain a better education in dental schools and consequently an optimal treatment of the patients, it is necessary to give to periodontology the same level of education as to other specialties in dentistry. Prophylaxis-oriented dentistry can only be established with the help of dental hygienists.

The modified Widman flap offers such clinical advantages over root planing as root visualization. Treating periodontal pockets, which after preliminary treatment show a depth of 4 mm and more and remaining sulcus bleeding upon probing we obtained with this procedure a reduction of pocket depths and of gingival inflammation and gain of clinical attachment. The maintenance of these results as well as the further loss of attachment are directly related to the frequency of the maintenance recall appointments. The success of this procedure does not depend on the age of the patients. The healing following this procedure is normally achieved after 21 days and is by a long junctional epithelium, which may be seen as a stable treatment success.

Despite the achievements of modern periodontology, partially or completely edentulous mouths are unavoidable. The rehabilitation of such patients is a great challenge in oral health care. The state of the art of osseointegrated implants according to Brånemark is described. Both full dentures and fixed partial dentures are discussed, with special emphasis on microbiological issues. The hypotheses are supported by substantial published evidence, and the problems discussed are further exemplified by a number of clinical case reports. The authors conclude that osseointegration according to Brånemark is an effective long-term method for oral rehabilitation, and that the failure rate is low. One reservation that has to be made is that we are still waiting for the results of long-term studies on patients who are edentulous due to advanced adult periodontitis. This is the only way to evaluate in more detail the robustness of the tissues around the implantation site.
