Innovation in Regenerative Technologies

There are a number of new and exciting technologies emerging for the treatment of periodontal regeneration and dental implantology. Recombinant platelet derived growth factor (Rh-PDGF) is a new technology that is gaining attention for the possibilities it offers.

In order to best serve Healthcare Professionals in the future, we would value your opinions and an overview of your current practice. We would appreciate your help by completing this survey.

The survey is divided into two research sections relating to periodontal disease and dental implantology. Please complete the relevant sections relating to your practice.

All information received will be treated as strictly confidential and will not be passed to any 3rd parties.
