Brief Summary

Conventional periodontal treatment typically involves a combination of non-surgical and surgical approaches, such as scaling and root planing, followed by flap surgery and guided tissue regeneration. While these methods have demonstrated some success in managing periodontal disease, the low success rate in complex cases has prompted the exploration of alternative treatment modalities. One such approach is minimally invasive, non-surgical monotherapy, which aims to address the etiological source of the inflammation without the need for invasive surgical intervention. Guided tissue regeneration, a well-established technique in periodontal treatment, employs physical barrier membranes to exclude the proliferation of unwanted gingival fibroblasts and allow the regeneration of tooth-supporting structures such as the alveolar bone, periodontal ligament, and cementum. Recent advancements in dental therapies have led to the exploration of minimally invasive non-surgical approaches that aim to achieve comparable outcomes with reduced morbidity. This protocol outlines a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a minimally invasive non-surgical monotherapy in treating patients with stage 4 periodontitis. Is minimally invasive non-surgical technique more effective in reducing tooth mobility and improving clinical parameters than conventional non-surgical technique?
