GroupInterventionDescription
NIPSA with grafting biomaterialNon-incised papila surgical approach with grafting biomaterialA single horizontal or oblique apical incision will be made in the mucosa located on the bony cortex, far from the marginal tissues and apically to the edge of the bony crest delimiting the defect. The tissue coronal to the incision will be raised full thickness, trying to maintain the preoperative papillae architecture intact. The granulation tissue and epithelium of the pocket will be eliminated. The affected root will be scaled and planed, and calculus eliminated. Once the defect will be debrided, the enamel matrix derivates will be applied and the bone defect will be filled with a composite of xenograft and enamel matrix derivates. Then the incision line will be sutured by a double suture line to facilitate closing without tension: The first with internal horizontal mattress sutures to approximate the connective tissue of both edges of the mucosal incision, and the second with single interrupted sutures.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Keratinized tissue width (KT)12 months

Keratinized tissue width will be assessed with a periodontal probe, measured in mm on the buccal aspect, from the gingival margin to the mucogingival line.

Probing pocket depth (PD)12 months

Probing pocket depth will be assessed with a periodontal probe, measured in mm from the gingival margin to the bottom of the pocket

Location of the tip of the papillae (TP)12 months

Location of the tip of the papillae. Taking as reference the level of the mid-axis of the tooth, will be measured the distance from the CEJ at the zenith of the tooth to the tip of the papilla. A positive value will be recorded when the tip of the papillae is located coronally to the CEJ and a negative value otherwise.

This outcome will be assessed with a periodontal probe and measured in mm.

Clinical attachment level (CAL)12 months

Clinical attachment level will be assessed with a periodontal probe, measured in mm from the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the bottom of the pocket.

Recession (REC)12 months

Recession, will be assessed with a periodontal probe, measured in mmm on the buccal aspect, from the CEJ to the gingival margin zenith.

Bleeding on probing12 months

Bleeding on probing could be positive or negative.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Wound closure (WC)1 week

Complete wound closure (CWC = 2) Incomplete wound closure (IWC = 1) necrosis (NT = 0).

Supra-alveolar attachment gain (SUPRA-AG)12 months

Subtracting the 12-month CAL from the intra-surgically BC-CEJ will provide the SUPRA-AG result.
