When gum disease destroys the bone and tissue surrounding a tooth, the body does not naturally rebuild those structures on its own. Guided tissue regeneration is a surgical technique that uses barrier membranes to direct the growth of new bone and connective tissue, giving teeth a second chance at a stable foundation.
At North Creek Dental Care, board-certified periodontist Dr. Charles H. Goodman performs guided tissue regeneration for patients who have experienced significant bone and tissue loss due to periodontal disease. Our periodontist in Tinley Park provides this advanced treatment in a trusted, patient-centered environment throughout Tinley Park and the Southland area.
