NCT03588507

Brief Summary

This study is meant to assess clinically and radiographically the possible predictable results regarding the use of nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite bone graft substitute together with papilla preservation flap versus papilla preservation flap alone in the treatment of periodontal intrabony defects. Patients will be randomly assigned to either test or control group. The two groups will be equally prepared for both surgical procedures. Then the decision of which group will receive (PPF techniques + Nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite bone graft) and which will receive (PPF techniques only) will be taken.

Study Arms (2)

Papilla preservation flap techniques

NO INTERVENTION

Papilla preservation flap techniques will be conducted to gain access to the intrabony defects. In the narrow interproximal spaces (≤2 mm), incision with the preservation of the buccal papilla according to the simplified papilla preservation technique will be applied. Whereas, in the wide interdental spaces (\>2 mm), the modified papilla preservation technique will be applied. Vertical or horizontal mattress sutures and additional interrupted single sutures will be performed to obtain primary closure of the interdental space.

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

intervention: papilla preservation flap techniques + nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite bone graft substitute Same surgical techniques and procedures will be performed. Before suturing the flap, nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite bone graft substitute(Dentaurum, Germany) will be placed within the defect up to the existing level of the alveolar crest and care will be taken not to overfill the defect. The mucoperiosteal flaps will be repositioned and secured in place using non-resorbable # 6-0-suturing material. Vertical or horizontal mattress sutures and additional interrupted single sutures will be performed to obtain primary closure of the interdental space.

Combination Product: PPF+NCHA bone graft substitute

Interventions

nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite bone graft is a a newly developed HA containing about 65% water and 35% nanostructured apatite particles. This gave the nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite bone graft many advantages such as providing a close contact with the surrounding tissues, bioresorbability and extremely high number of nano-sized particles and molecules on the surface .
