Periodontal Bone Loss, Periodontal Diseases
Conditions
Brief summary
This study was performed to investigate the adjunctive clinical benefit of the application of enamel matric derivatives and xenograft with the modified minimally invasive surgical technique in the treatment of isolated intrabony defects in periodontally compromised subjects.
Interventions
modified minimally invasive surgical technique alone in interdental area
modified minimally invasive surgical technique with application of enamel matrix proteins in interdental area
modified minimally invasive surgical technique with application of enamel matrix proteins and placement of bovine bone graft in interdental area

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* at least one site associated with an intrabony defect of ≥3 mm involving predominantly the interdental space of the tooth * patients with optimal compliance
Exclusion criteria
* Patients with uncontrolled or poorly controlled diabetes * history of long-term use of medications * allergic to medications * pregnant or lactating women * smokers/users of other tobacco products
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Probing Pocket Depth | 24 weeks | The depth of probe penetration into the pocket (millimeters) is measured from the gingival margin using an UNC-15 probe. |
| Clinical Attachment Level | 24 weeks | The distance from the base of the pocket to cemento-enamel junction (millimeters) is measured using an UNC-15 probe. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Full mouth plaque score | 24 weeks | Turesky Modification of Quigley-Hein Index used to assess plaque buildup across all tooth surfaces (buccal, lingual, mesial, distal) with scoring 0 (no plaque) to 5 (heavy plaque) |
| Full mouth bleeding score | 24 weeks | Probe is inserted and withdrawn at the distal point of the tooth and monitored for bleeding within 10 seconds. Registered with (+) availability of provoked bleeding and with (-) its absence. |
| Mean defect depth | 24 weeks | measured as the distance fromt the alveolar crest to the base of the defect (in CBCT) |
