Conditions

Intrabony Periodontal Defect
Registration Number
NCT07119307
Lead Sponsor
Rungta College of Dental Sciences and Research
Brief Summary

The present three-arm study compared the clinical and tomographic efficacy of the Entire Papilla Preservation Surgical Technique (EPPT) alone and combined with enamel matrix derivative (EMD) plus bone mineral derivedxenograph (BMDX), in the treatment of isolated, inter-dental intra-bony defects.

Detailed Description

This randomized controlled clinical and tomographic study included 48 sites with isolated interdental intrabony defects, divided into three groups. Group 1 (control) received EPPT alone, Group 2 received EPPT with EMD, and Group 3 received EPPT with EMD and BMDX (Fix-Oss xenograft). Clinical parameters probing pocket depth (PPD), relative attachment level (RAL), gingival recession (GR), and papilla height-were recorded at baseline and 12 months. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to evaluate tomographic changes including defect width, CEJ-BD, CEJ-AC, X-ray INFRA and defect angle.
