Brief Summary
The use of Enamel Matrix Derivative (EMD) associated to microsurgical flaps was demonstrated to be effective for the treatment of intrabony defects, in particular in presence of a self-contained anatomy. The main aim of this study will be to evaluate the difference in Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) between baseline and 1-year follow-up, comparing flapless periodontal regeneration using EMD versus the use of EMD after microsurgical flap elevation (Modified-Minimally Invasive Surgical Technique (M-MIST) / Single-flap approach).
