简要总结
Intraosseous defects are characterized by vertical bone loss within the borders of the alveolar bone surrounding the teeth due to periodontal disease and are considered a clinically concerning condition. Treatment of intraosseous defects involves regenerative techniques aimed at reconstructing lost periodontal structures (including bone, cementum and periodontal ligament). In the process of periodontal regeneration, it is of great importance that the blood clot attached to the root surface is protected from mechanical and microbiological factors and remains in a stable biological environment. Post-surgical wound dehiscence can lead to impaired clot stabilization and infection, negatively affecting the healing process and thus jeopardizing the results of the treatment.
Regenerative therapies using conventional flap surgery have been reported to provide significant improvements in clinical attachment levels, but carry a high risk of loss of attachment if flap management is inadequate. Furthermore, complications such as difficulty in primary closure, risk of membrane exposure and tissue detachment have been observed with conventional flap techniques. Various minimally invasive flap surgery techniques have been developed to prevent these complications. One of the minimally invasive periodontal flap techniques is the full papillary preservation technique. Unlike traditional methods, this innovative approach provides vertical access to the defect area from the buccal and lingual adjacent areas without any incision in the papillary region. This technique reduces the risk of wound healing failure and exposure of regenerative biomaterials due to the fully preserved interdental papilla over the bony defect. The aim of our study is to compare the short-term (6 months) radiographic and clinical results of the Entire Papilla Preservation (EPP) technique with the Conventional Flap Surgery (CFS) technique.

结局指标
主要结局
Probing Depth
时间窗: 6 MONTH
Probing Depth (PD) refers to the distance from the gingival margin to the base of the periodontal pocket. It is expressed in mm and a high measurement is a clinically unfavorable value.
Clinical Attachment Level
时间窗: 6 MONTH
Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) is defined as the distance from the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the base of the periodontal pocket. It is expressed in mm and a high measurement is a clinically unfavorable value.
Gingival Recession
时间窗: 6 MONTH
Gingival Recession (GR) refers to the apical migration of the gingival margin, resulting in exposure of the root surface. While it should be 0 in healthy individuals, an increase is a bad value.
次要结局
- Visual analogue scale(for 2 weeks after treatment)
- Early healing index.(1 week after treatment)
