With the long-standing goal of retaining teeth in a functional and esthetical state, the periodontology has developed a high level of expertise in the regeneration of bone and connective tissues that support the teeth. However, periodontists have also joined maxillofacial surgeons as the primary providers of implant surgery. Methods: The tremendous innovations of periodontists induced also by the marketplace resulted in predictable periodontal treatment outcomes for most patients by the implants led to a dramatically different marketplace in which many patients with periodontitis can be treated by the implants rather than the traditional periodontal treatment. Results: The aim of this article is to focus on the innovator’s dilemma for periodontists today is that key elements of our rewarding contributions to dentistry in recent decades are unlikely to be part of a strong and rewarding future for the profession. Conclusions: With the intriguing role of the personalized medicine approach that integrates genomic and clinical information to predict a possible predisposition, we do not suggest a reduced role for periodontists in dental implant surgery but rather a more prominent role in complex cases to achieve surgical implant needs and proper reconstruction and long-term maintenance of the patient’s health. 08 30 2017 460 465 TODENTJ-11-460 1 10.2174/crossmark_policy opendentistryjournal.com benthamopen.com true Peer Reviewed Single blind Checked with iThenticate 2017-02-28 2017-04-23 2017-07-17 2017-08-30 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode 10.2174/1874210601711010460 1553507075 https://opendentistryjournal.com/VOLUME/11/PAGE/460/ https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-460/TODENTJ-11-460.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-460/TODENTJ-11-460.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-460/TODENTJ-11-460.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-460/TODENTJ-11-460.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-460/TODENTJ-11-460.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-460/TODENTJ-11-460.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-460/TODENTJ-11-460.pdf https://opendentistryjournal.com/contents/volumes/V11/TODENTJ-11-460/TODENTJ-11-460.xml Int.
