Pioneering Excellence in Periodontal Plastic SurgeryTransforming the Future of Regenerative Dentistry and Aesthetic SurgeryThe ISPPS membership system is currently undergoing an exciting transition to a new, enhanced operating platform designed to deliver a smoother, more efficient experience for our members. During this brief construction period, some membership functions may be temporarily unavailable. We anticipate the upgraded system will be fully up and running by the end of February, or sooner, and we appreciate your patience as we invest in tools that better support our growing global community. The International Society of Periodontal Plastic Surgeons (ISPPS) is an international, peer-driven community of clinicians dedicated to advancing excellence in periodontal plastic surgery. Grounded in the highest standards of clinical mastery, ethical practice, and patient-centered care, ISPPS brings together leaders in mucogingival and esthetic periodontal surgery who are committed to precision, innovation, and evidence-based outcomes. At the core of ISPPS is a culture of collegiality, mentorship, and rigorous scientific exchange. The Society provides a trusted forum for thoughtful dialogue, collaborative learning, and the open sharing of real-world clinical experience, where established experts actively mentor the next generation of surgeons. Through world-class education, intentional selectivity, and a deeply engaged global community, ISPPS elevates professional standards, enriches the member experience, and helps shape the future of periodontal plastic surgery worldwide. About ISPPSOver 30 years ago, Dr. Peter Nordland reached out to Dr. Preston Miller and suggested they meet to discuss similarities in root coverage surgery, which up to that time had been considered impossible or, at best, unpredictable. They met during the American Academy of Periodontology’s Annual Meeting and shared differences and similarities in the procedures they were performing. Dr. P.D. Miller introduced Dr. Pat Allen to Dr. Nordland and they all decided to meet and share ideas about root coverage grafting. The meeting was so productive that they felt it would be a good idea to create a study group focused on regenerative surgery. They invited some of the most talented and inquisitive clinicians of the time to also contribute. Little did they realize that the pendulum of periodontal surgical procedures was about to take a big swing into the regenerative and reconstructive direction.
