Sažetak
The authors describe the potential use of electrosurgery in periodontology and how, with its proper application, satisfactory clinical results can be achieved in the modeling of gingival tissue. Electrosurgery can be most commonly used in gingivectomy and gingivoplasty. Especially good results are achieved in the treatment of hyperplastic gingivitis, reconstruction of gingival tissue after surgery or after ulceronecrotic gingivitis. The authors report the results of electrosurgery in the therapy of di latin g ingivitis, pubertal gingivitis and reconstruction of hyperplastic gingivial tissue for reconstructive stomatology. The authors' experience indicates that gingivial tissue can be precisely modeled with electrosurgery, achieving functionally and esthetically favorable results. The healing process was clinically unenventful in all patients. The various shapes of active electrodes allow a good approach to all parts of the dental arch and very precise shaping of gingivial tissue because of the absence of hemorrhaging. Special care should be taken to keep the active electrodes from coming into contact with the periosteum and alveolar bone since this could lead to ,necrosis and sequestration of bone. The authors conclude that electrosurgery, when properly indicated and applied by an experienced therapist, is a valuable and useful therapeutic procedure in periodontology.
