简要总结
Background: Prevention of periodontal defects after the extraction of lower third molars remains a challenge. Various methods have been proposed in the literature, but there are no studies which evaluated the effectiveness of amelogenins.
Methods: A single-blind split-mouth randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT) was performed on 5 patients to verify if amelogenins had some benefits in improving lower second molar periodontal healing after adjacent third molar extraction. A PPD ≥ 8 mm associated with a radiographic bone defect of at least 5 mm were the main inclusion criteria.

研究组 & 干预措施
amelogenins group
The study involved enrolling 5 periodontitis free patients, to which the extraction of both lower third molars was prescribed. A bone defect at the distal surface of the second molar ≥ 5 mm, had to be present on the intraoral periapical radiography, bilaterally. Amelogenins effect was evaluated by applying them only in the test site and comparing healing results with those obtained on the contra-lateral site
干预措施: Amelogenin (Drug)
placebo group
The study involved enrolling 5 periodontitis free patients, to which the extraction of both lower third molars was prescribed. A bone defect at the distal surface of the second molar ≥ 5 mm, had to be present on the intraoral periapical radiography, bilaterally. In this group (control site) the conventional treatment was performed, and healing was ensured only by the simple blood clot
干预措施: Placebos (Drug)
