Descriptor pérdida de la inserción periodontal
Scope note: Pérdida o destrucción del tejido periodontal producida por periodontitis u otras enfermedades destructivas periodontales o por lesiones durante la instrumentación. La inserción se refiere al ligamento periodontal que se une al hueso alveolar. Existe la hipótesis de que el tratamiento de la enfermedad periodontal subyacente y la siembra de células del ligamento periodontal posibilitan la creación de una nueva inserción.
