Medford Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR)
Advanced periodontal treatment for optimal healing
Restore and protect your oral health with expert periodontal care
At Medford Periodontics, Dr. Jiang specializes in Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR), an advanced technique designed to restore lost periodontal structures and support gum health. This regenerative approach helps stimulate new bone and soft tissue growth, improving the foundation of your teeth and enhancing overall oral health.
GTR is particularly effective for treating advanced gum disease and preserving natural teeth by encouraging the regeneration of lost bone and connective tissue. With cutting-edge techniques and state-of-the-art materials, we provide precise and predictable results to help you achieve a healthier smile.
How guided tissue regeneration works
- Barrier membranes: These biocompatible materials help protect the treated area and prevent unwanted soft tissue from interfering with bone and ligament regeneration.
- Bone grafting (if necessary): In cases where bone loss has occurred, grafting materials may be placed to enhance new bone formation.
- Stimulation of tissue regrowth: The guided process encourages the body to rebuild lost bone and periodontal support to improve tooth stability and long-term oral health.

What is guided tissue regeneration?
Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is a periodontal procedure that helps restore lost gum and bone tissue by using specialized membranes to promote natural healing and regrowth. This treatment is commonly used in cases of advanced gum disease and periodontal defects.
What are the benefits of GTR?
- Prevents further gum and bone loss
- Restores the foundation for natural teeth
- Reduces the need for extractions
- Enhances stability for future dental implants
- Promotes long-term oral health
How does the procedure work?
After a thorough assessment, Dr. Jiang will carefully remove diseased tissue and place a protective membrane over the affected area. This membrane prevents soft tissue from growing into the space, allowing the bone and ligament to regenerate properly. Additional grafting materials may be used if necessary.
Is GTR a painful procedure?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring a comfortable experience. Most patients report minimal discomfort, and post-operative care includes simple at-home instructions to support healing.
