The present study was performed to evaluate the amount of bony regeneration following the guided tissue regeneration(GTR). Re-entry procedure has been performed at 1 year following the GTR with Gore-tex membranes on the furcal defects and the amount of bony regeneration was measured. Sites treatedwith open flap procedures were used as controls. The results reveated that significant amount of bone could be regenerated through the GTR procedures compared with convention flap procedures.
