Eligibility

Age
35 Years to 60 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Age 35 - 60 years; radiographic evidence of at least one infrabony 2 or 3-wall or combined interproximal periodontal defect; attachment loss = 5 mm

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Systemic disorders (uncontrolled diabetes and hypertension, hemophilia or other coagulation disordes); pregnants or lactants; systemic therapy with antimicrobials, antineoplastics, anticoagulants, immunostimulants or immunodepressors 4 weeks before study beggining; radiotherapy and/or immunosupression; endodontic lesions; grade 2 tooth mobility; severe parafunction; allergy to citric acid and/or tetracycline; illicit drugs or alcohol abusers; smokers or former smokers < 6 months

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to observe pocket depth at 12-month post-operative examination, as determined by the measurement of the distance from gingival margin to the bottom of the sulcus or pocket with a millimeter periodontal probe (UNC-15) by a single blinded and calibrated examiner;It is expected to observe attachment gain at 12-month post-operative examination, as determined by the measurement of the distance from cementum-enamel junction to the bottom of the sulcus or pocket with a millimeter periodontal probe (UNC-15) by a single blinded and calibrated examiner;It is expected to observe radiographic bone filling at 12-month post-operative examination, as determined in intra-oral X-ray images as the distance from the most apical point of cementum-enamel junction to the base of the defect

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to observe radiographic integrity of lamina dura at 12-month post-operative examination, as determined in intra-oral X-ray images as a radiopaque continuous line through the lateral aspect of the roots
