Periodontal surgery is essential for treating advanced periodontal disease and often results in surgical wounds that require effective healing. The process of wound recovery following periodontal surgery is critical for the success of the procedure and the restoration of periodontal health. This review includes a concise outline of the healing of periodontal wounds, discussing distinct strategies to promote stable healing and improve treatment outcomes. It covers conventional wound management methods. Additionally, the review examines the roles of systemic and local antibiotics, nutritional support and various natural therapies in optimizing wound healing. Several studies and clinical trials are reviewed to assess the effectiveness of these treatments, highlighting their mechanisms, benefits, and limitations. The review emphasizes the importance of both traditional and innovative approaches to maximize healing outcomes. Ultimately, this review aims to inform better patient care and recovery after periodontal surgery, while suggesting areas for future research to enhance wound healing protocols and improve the predictability of surgical outcomes.
