NCT07474272

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel, with or without cross-linked hyaluronic acid, as an addition to standard non-surgical periodontal therapy works to treat periodontitis in adults. It will also learn about the safety of these treatments. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the adjunctive treatment reduce bleeding on probing, plaque index, and periodontal pocket depth? What medical or dental problems do participants have when receiving these treatments? Researchers will compare: Standard non-surgical periodontal therapy alone Standard therapy plus sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel Standard therapy plus sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel and cross-linked hyaluronic acid ("Clean and Seal" protocol) Participants will: Receive their assigned treatment during one clinical session per the study protocol Have clinical measurements taken before treatment and at three months after treatment Be monitored for any dental or medical adverse events related to the procedures

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Probing Pocket Depth (PPD)

    Probing Pocket Depth is the distance, measured in millimeters, from the gingival margin (the edge of the gum tissue) to the bottom of the periodontal pocket, which is the point where the soft tissue attaches to the tooth. It is measured using a calibrated periodontal probe at six sites per tooth: mesiobuccal, mid-buccal, distobuccal, mesiolingual/palatal, mid-lingual/palatal, and distolingual/palatal.

    pre-operative and at 3 months post-operative

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Plaque index (Silness et Loe)

    pre-operative and 3 months post-operative

  • Bleeding on probing (BOP)

    pre-operative and 3 months post-operative

  • gingival recession

    pre-operative and 3 months post-operative

  • Clinical attachment level

    Measured at baseline (T0) and 3 months post-treatment (T3).

Study Arms (3)

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants receive standard care, including oral hygiene instructions, supragingival and subgingival mechanical debridement using ultrasonic and hand instruments, and brief irrigation with 0.12% chlorhexidine solution. No adjunctive sodium hypochlorite or hyaluronic acid is used.

Procedure: Standard Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy

Standard Therapy + Sodium Hypochlorite/Amino Acid Gel

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants receive the same standard care as Arm 1. In addition, a 0.9% sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel (Perisolv) is instilled into periodontal pockets with probing depth \>4 mm and left for 60 seconds before mechanical debridement. The gel application is repeated as needed until instrumentation is complete.

Procedure: tandard Therapy + Sodium Hypochlorite/Amino Acid Gel

Standard Therapy + Sodium Hypochlorite/Amino Acid Gel + Cross-Linked Hyaluronic Acid

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants receive the same treatment as Arm 2. After instrumentation, cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel (Hyadent BG) is applied to the treated pockets to promote healing and tissue regeneration, following the "Clean and Seal" protocol.

Procedure: Standard Therapy + Sodium Hypochlorite/Amino Acid Gel + Cross-Linked Hyaluronic Acid

Interventions

Standard Non-Surgical Periodontal Therapy based on the American Academy of Periodontology's guidelines: mechanical debridement with manual and ultrasonics

Control group

Participants receive the same standard care as Arm 1. In addition, a 0.9% sodium hypochlorite/amino acid gel is instilled into periodontal pockets with probing depth \>4 mm and left for 60 seconds before mechanical debridement. The gel application is repeated as needed until instrumentation is complete.

Standard Therapy + Sodium Hypochlorite/Amino Acid Gel

Participants receive the same treatment as Arm 2. After instrumentation, cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel is applied to the treated pockets to promote healing and tissue regeneration, following the "Clean and Seal" protocol.

  • Patients who received any periodontal therapy for the last 6 months;
  • Pregnant or lactating women;
  • Smokers smoking more than 10 cigarettes per day.

IPD Sharing
Will not share

Individual participant data (IPD) from this study will not be shared due to the small sample size and the sensitive nature of patient-level clinical measurements. Sharing such data could risk participant confidentiality and privacy. Additionally, the study is investigator-initiated, and resources for secure anonymization, storage, and controlled access for external researchers are not available at this time.
