Brief summary

The aim of this controlled study is to assess the clinical outcomes and patient reported outcomes of using minimally invasive surgical procedure with Straumann Emdogain as an adjunct (test treatment) or without Straumann Emdogain (control treatment).

Detailed description

The aim of the study will be achieved through the following primary and secondary objectives. The primary objective is to evaluate the regenerative potential of Straumann Emdogain by comparing the change in clinical attachment level from baseline to 12 months between the test and control arms. The regenerative potential of Straumann Emdogain will also be assessed by comparing the changes in gingival margins, changes in average probing pocket depth, changes in full mouth plaque score, changes in bleeding on probing, and changes in root dentin hypersensitivity from baseline to 12 months between the test and control arms.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change in Clinical Attachment Levels (CAL)Baseline and 12 Month Follow-Up VisitCAL will be measured in millimeters on the study teeth at 6 locations. Outcome is mean change of CAL from baseline measurements at surgery to 12-months post-surgery, taken from the deepest pocket of a patient's test and control teeth measured at baseline. Analysis will compare the mean change of CAL for test and control treatment arms.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change in Pocket Probing Depth (PPD)Baseline and 12 Month Follow-Up VisitPPD will be measured in millimeters on the study teeth in 6 locations. Outcome is mean change of PPD from baseline at surgery to 12-months post-surgery, taken from the deepest pocket of a patient's test and control teeth at baseline. Analysis will compare the mean change of PPD for test and control treatment arms.
Change in Full Mouth Plaque Score (FMPS)Baseline and 12 Month Follow-Up VisitFMPS will be calculated based on the number of tooth surfaces with plaque over the total number of tooth surfaces x 100. The value is presented as a percent. The difference in FMPS between 12 months and baseline will be determined.
Change in Gingival Margin (GM)Baseline and 12 Month Follow-Up VisitGM will be measured in millimeters on the study teeth at 6 locations. Outcome is mean change of GM from baseline at surgery to 12-months-post surgery, taken from the deepest pocket of a patient's test and control teeth measured at baseline. Analysis will compare the mean change of GM for test and control treatment arms.
Change in Root Dentin HypersensitivityBaseline and 12 Month Follow-Up VisitPresence of root dentin hypersensitivity will be recorded as none (no reaction from the subject), mild (sensible with no pain), moderate (sensible with slight pain), or severe (sensible with pain that persists for a while) after a conventional air blast is applied to the study tooth. Changes in the frequency of categories will be determined and compared between the two treatment arms. An improvement is defined as a decreased reaction (for example, severe to mild), a deterioration is defined as increased reaction (for example, none to moderate), and unchanged is no change to reaction (for example, mild to mild).
Change in Post-surgical Pain1-2 days post surgery, 1 week post surgery, and 2 weeks post surgeryPost-surgical pain will be measured on a 100 millimeter visual analog scale. The range is 0 (no pain) to 99 (nearly maximum pain). The lower the value, the better the outcome. The subjects will be instructed to mark their level of pain on a line for both the test quadrant and the control quadrant. The average change in pain level will be determined and compared between the two arms.
Change in Bleeding on Probing (BoP)Baseline and 12 Month Follow-Up VisitFor the categorical variable BoP, the frequency of bleeding (present or absent) will be counted (absolute and in percent) over all measured sites around the identified study teeth for each treatment group. The results will be compared between the 12-month follow-up and baseline.
