title: [The choice of the sequence of operations on the periodontal tissues].
abstract: Operations on periodontal tissues and accessory operations, such as frenulo- or vestibuloplasty, have always been difficult for beginning practitioners. Analysis of 8-year practical work of a periodontologist--296 operations (57 accessory operations and 239 operations on periodontal tissues) disclosed the regularities in such interventions, related to patient's age and sex and the percent ratio of each operation, determined the rational order of operations, and demonstrated the prophylactic efficacy of accessory operations (frenuloplasty or vestibuloplasty).
