Currently periodontitis remains one of the most common diseases. According to the WHO (2022), severe forms of periodontal diseases affect 19% of the adult population. Despite improvements in the quality of dental care and the introduction of new diagnostic methods, there is a trend towards an increase in newly identified cases of chronic periodontitis [1]. The consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic have impacted overall somatic health, including oral health, exacerbating pre-existing periodontal pathologies. The treatment of severe periodontitis is impossible without the use of surgical techniques such as guided bone regeneration which are essential for restoring lost bone and soft tissue structures of the periodontium. An urgent issue in modern dentistry, particularly periodontology, is early diagnosis and dynamic monitoring of the postoperative period. Analyzing existing research in the field of diagnosis and monitoring of the quality of the postoperative period, we believe that the combination of radiological and joulemetric methods are both relevant and in demand.
