Following the devastating earthquake in Turkey and Syria, the EFP would like to show its support and solidarity in the face of this serious humanitarian crisis.
In collaboration with the WHO Foundation, the EFP has launched a donation campaign to support the people whose lives have been severely impacted, and our thoughts are with the people of Turkey and Syria and our colleagues and friends in the perio community at this difficult time.
The EFP is producing a set of S3-level clinical practice guidelines for the modern, evidence-based treatment of periodontitis. These new-generation guidelines, the outcomes of Perio Workshop 2019 and Perio Workshop 2021, are fully aligned with the 2018-updated classification of periodontal diseases.
The EFP agreed with the American Academy of Periodontology on an innovative approach for a common classification scheme of periodontal and peri-implant diseases and conditions, to be used by scientists and clinicians everywhere.
