Brief Summary

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

the aim of our study is to enhance the dissolution and subsequently the local penetration of the drug through the sulcus in addition to controlling the drug release so that, the drug could be potentially absorbed.

Detailed Description

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

Patients will be divided randomly into three groups: Group (I);will be treated with subgingival debridement and subgengival injection of chitosan 2% gel containing a microsponges formulated (SV), Group (II); will be treated with subgingival debridement and subgingival injection of chitosan 2% gel containing free (SV) and Group (III); will be treated by subgingival debridement and placebo gel injected subgingivally. Pocket depth and clinical attachment loss bone gain were recorded preoperative and six months postoperative for all groups.

Plain chitosan gel group

After the reevaluation phase after that corrective surgical phase started for the three groups. Local infiltration anesthesia administrated then sulcular flaps raised for the purpose of open flap subgingival debridement . Randomization will be performed and concealment from the assessors. For root conditioning purpose, Group (I) ; will be injected subgingivally with chitosan 2% gel .
