ABSTRACT

Periodontitis is a group of inflammatory diseases that affect the connective tissue attachment and supporting bone around the teeth. It is widely accepted that the initiation and the progression of periodontitis are dependent on the presence of virulent microorganisms capable of causing disease. Although the bacteria are initiating agents in periodontitis, the host response to the pathogenic infection is critical to disease progression. New research is demonstrating that a person’s total health is also related to their oral health. Elimination of all oral infections, including gingivitis and periodontitis, is important for overall health of the individual. William Hoisington has developed a new technique (TIP technique) for the treatment of periodontal disease which is a non- invasive procedure. The human body has a capacity of healing and repair by itself after any injury. TIP technique is the procedure which predicts the phenomenon in periodontal diseases healing and repair. Tri-immunophasic therapy acts by influencing the disease etiological factors and aiding healing by 3 immune phases. Immune phases are: vigilant readiness, defense phase, repair and regeneration. The tri-immunophasic therapy works by altering the pathogenesis and disease progression by changing the defensive phase against bacteria and other microorganisms into a regeneration phase to achieve a new attachment.[1,4]
