Flap Design in Minimally Invasive Periodontal Surgery: An Evidence-Based Approach
- The importance of flap design beyond surgical access: Its impact on wound healing, blood clot stability, and soft tissue preservation, supported by current evidence
- Key principles of flap design common to minimally invasive periodontal surgery and how they differ from conventional techniques
- Clinical evidence on the effectiveness and limitations of minimally invasive flap designs, and their appropriate application according to the clinical situation
The success of periodontal regenerative therapy depends not only on patient plaque control and the selection of regenerative materials, but also on appropriate flap design. In recent years, minimally invasive periodontal surgical approaches, including the Minimally Invasive Surgical Technique (MIST), have gained increasing attention. These techniques aim to optimize wound healing, enhance blood clot stability, preserve soft tissue architecture, and minimize surgical trauma.
Various flap designs have been proposed based on these biological principles, each with distinct advantages and limitations. Understanding the rationale behind flap design is therefore essential for achieving predictable clinical outcomes.
This lecture will review the fundamental concepts shared by minimally invasive periodontal surgical procedures and highlight their differences from conventional flap approaches. Furthermore, evidence from both clinical and basic studies will be presented to evaluate the effectiveness and limitations of minimally invasive flap designs. Finally, practical considerations for selecting appropriate flap designs according to defect characteristics and clinical situations will be discussed.

Periodontal Reconstruction Using Tunnel-like Approaches in Challenging Clinical Scenarios
Periodontal Reconstruction Using Tunnel-like Approaches in Challenging Clinical Scenarios
- Although periodontal regenerative therapy is a well-established and evidence-based treatment modality, its predictability varies according to defect characteristics, and certain clinical situations remain challenging.
- Tunnel technique–based periodontal regenerative therapy has emerged as a valuable surgical approach and can provide highly predictable outcomes when appropriate case selection is applied.
- A thorough understanding of the indications, advantages, and limitations of the tunnel technique is essential for achieving optimal clinical outcomes.
- The lecture will also introduce the recently described Flexible Tunnel Technique and discuss its clinical applications and potential benefits.
Primary closure following periodontal regenerative therapy is considered one of the key factors for achieving favorable clinical outcomes. Periodontal regenerative approaches utilizing tunnel techniques are thought to provide advantages in terms of early wound closure and maintenance of the regenerative space, and several surgical procedures based on this concept have been proposed. In this presentation, the advantages and limitations of these techniques will be discussed. In addition, I would like to introduce a new tunnel-like approach that I have recently developed.

Application of Periodontal Surgery for Interdisciplinary Treatment Planning
歯周外科の包括的歯科治療への最適応用
- How to apply periodontal plastic surgery in the field of aesthetics
- Knowledge and methods for making the most of the difference between clinical and anatomical crown length
- Proposal for a new functional crown lengthening procedure
- 歯周形成外科の審美領域への活かし方
- 臨床的歯冠長と解剖的歯冠長の差を最大に生かす知識と方法
- 新しい機能的歯冠延長術の提案
This lecture will outline how periodontal surgery could be optimally applied in clinical practice within the context of comprehensive dental treatment. It will explain the diagnostic criteria and treatment planning required to utilize periodontal plastic surgery effectively in the aesthetic field, as well as the principles and specific techniques for making the most of the difference between clinical and anatomical crown length. Furthermore, I will present a new concept of functional crown lengthening that prioritizes the function and stability of periodontal tissues, and share clinical perspectives on how minor adjustments can yield significant improvements.
