Abstract: Periodontitis leads to the destruction of periodontal tissue. Reconstruction of the periodontal tissue with natural structure and the rehabilitation of its physiological function is the ultimate goal of the clinical treatment. Unfortunately, this has not yet been fully achieved in clinical practice. Currently, it is acknowledged that four aspects of periodontal tissue regeneration need to be improved. They are safe and effective stem cell sources, adequate blood supply, stable space for the regeneration process, and multiple growth factors that could be released in an ordered temporal and spatial manner. To achieve the above targets, different strategies have been challenged by many researchers. This paper aims to review the recent progress of periodontal tissue regeneration and try to find some prospective solutions which can guide future research directions of periodontal tissue regeneration.
