Gum surgery options to help regenerate damaged gum bone
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial compares two dental gum surgery approaches to see which better helps the gum and bone heal in people with periodontitis. It may help by improving the depth of gum pockets and supporting regrowth of damaged areas around teeth.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with periodontitis (a long-term gum infection).
- Your gum bleeding and plaque levels are both under 30%.
- You have gum pockets deeper than 5 mm around affected areas.
- You have a bone defect between the tooth and gum that is more than 3 mm deep.
- Your defect must include the cheek-side (buccal) wall and have a 1- or 2-wall bone involvement pattern.
- You should not have health conditions that would make this treatment unsafe.

This trial studies a specific gum surgery technique plus a biologic product to help fill deep gum/bone defects from periodontitis (gum disease). It may help reduce gum pocket depth and improve healing around affected teeth.
This study looks at three different ways to make cuts in the gums during surgery for deep pockets caused by gum disease. It aims to find which technique helps heal better and save more bone.
This trial studies a way to preserve gum (periodontal) “granulation” tissue during surgical treatment for severe periodontitis (gum disease). It may help patients heal better after surgery, especially when deep gum pockets do not improve after non-surgical care.
This trial compares two ways to perform gum surgery (a modified Widman flap vs. a papilla preservation technique) in people with advanced periodontitis who still have deep pockets after initial treatment. It aims to find which method works better.
This study compares two surgical methods for treating deep gum pockets caused by advanced gum disease. It will help find the best way to reduce pocket depth and save teeth.
This trial compares a minimally invasive gum surgery method (using Emdogain MI) versus a more traditional approach for treating localized gum pockets. It may help people by promoting gum healing and improving gum “attachment” around the teeth.
