Resumo

Over the past few years, periodontology has experienced an unprecedented acceleration in the development of international guidelines that are redefining how the discipline is understood, taught, and practised. This “new era” is not necessarily rooted in any new discovery, or sudden shift in our understanding of periodontal biology or disease pathogenesis, in fact, these foundations remain unchanged. The main shifts come from the consolidation and translation of decades of research into coherent, evidence‑based frameworks that support a global and unified approach to periodontal care.
