    Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) procedures attempt to regenerate lost periodontal structures by taking advantage of differences in how periodontal tissues respond. Specifically, GTR uses barriers to compartmentalize the gingival corium, periodontal ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone to selectively encourage regeneration of the desired tissues in each compartment.

    Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) describes procedures attempting to regenerate lost periodontal structures through differential tissue responses.

    In 1976, Melcher presented the concept of compartmentalization, in which the connective tissues of the periodontium were divided into four compartments: the lamina propria of the gingiva (gingival corium), the periodontal ligament (PDL), the cementum, and the alveolar bone.23
