Within the field of tissue engineering, in the area of periodontics, the use of matrices for guiding tissue proliferation has included the guided tissue regeneration procedures, which aims at new bone, cementum and desmodontium formation. The present literature review was conducted in order to provide a general and updated overview on the use of these procedures in periodontal therapy. It was concluded that guided tissue regeneration improve the periodontal therapeutic spectrum; that scientific literature supports its choice and, specially the use of membranes to facilitate the regenerative processes of the anomalies caused by periodontal disease and its sequelae.

Palabras clave : regenerative medicine; guided tissue regeneration, periodontal; tissue engineering periodontics; membranes, artficial.
