Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical efficacy of entire papilla preservation technique with and without the adjunct of amelogenins (EMD) and bone substitutes.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The present study is designed as a single-centre, parallel group, randomized, controlled clinical trial comparing the efficacy of EPP with or without biomaterials. Each patient will contribute with a single intrabony defect. Three months after completion of initial periodontal therapy, all the experimental sites will be accessed with the "EPP" technique (Aslan et al., 2017a) and carefully debrided. EDTA gel will be applied on the instrumented root surfaces. A combination of EMD and deproteinized bovine-derived bone substitute will be applied in the test group (EPP EMD + BS), while the control group (EPP) will not receive any regenerative biomaterial. Patients will be enrolled in a stringent maintenance programme with recalls on a weekly basis for the first month and then monthly controls for professional tooth cleaning up to 1 year. Clinical parameters will be recorded immediately before regenerative surgery (baseline) and 12 months after the regenerative periodontal surgery.

Study Groups

EPP with EMD+BS

Using minimally invasive surgery, entire papilla preservation technique with the adjunctive use of amelogenins and bone substitutes

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Procedure: Periodontal surgery with entire papilla preservation (EPP) technique

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

After local anesthesia injection an modified flap is designed according to minimally invasive microsurgical techniques. After flap elevation, careful removal of granulation tissues from the periodontal defects is performed. Scaling and root planing of the involved dental roots is ensured and finally suture is placed.

EMD application

Intervention Type DEVICE

Application of Pref-Gel for 2 minutes and then the application of Enamel Matrix Derivatives (EMD) on the surgically exposed root surface.

Bone substitutes application

Intervention Type DEVICE

Following the application of EMD, filling the bone defect with bone substitutes.

EPP without EMD+BS

Using minimally invasive surgery, entire papilla preservation technique without the adjunctive use of amelogenins and bone substitutes

Group Type OTHER

Procedure: Periodontal surgery with entire papilla preservation (EPP) technique

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

After local anesthesia injection an modified flap is designed according to minimally invasive microsurgical techniques. After flap elevation, careful removal of granulation tissues from the periodontal defects is performed. Scaling and root planing of the involved dental roots is ensured and finally suture is placed.
