Abstract

Abstract: Flap surgery is one of the most widely used basic periodontal surgeries. The periodontal condition should be evaluated before surgery. The incision, flap raising, reduction and suture are designed according to the purpose of operation and anatomical factors. With the innovation of surgical concepts, instruments and biological materials, flap surgery has been improved accordingly. This article briefly reviewed the progress of the flap surgery, and introduced the steps and key points of the surgery step by step, in order to provide a learning reference for dentists and stomatological students.

Key words: flap surgery, periodontal surgery, periodontitis, modified Widman flap, minimally invasive surgery
