Platelet treatment for deep gum bone defects
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial studies an “autologous platelet concentrate” (a gel made from your own blood) to help heal deep bone defects caused by periodontitis. It’s meant for adults with specific measurements in one or more gum pockets and bone areas after recent non-surgical gum treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 25 or older and generally healthy enough to join a research study.
- You have diagnosed periodontitis with a deep gum pocket (at least 6 mm between teeth), bleeding, and bone/support loss of at least 6 mm, plus a bone defect of at least 3 mm in the selected area.
- Your recent gum health scores are low: full-mouth bleeding and plaque are both under 25% (measured within the last 6 weeks).
- You finished non-surgical gum treatment within the last 6 months before the eligibility check.
- You have not had gum surgery in the selected area within the last 12 months.
- You have not used certain medicines or exposures recently (no antibiotics/anti-inflammatories in the past month, no long-term use of blood thinners or steroid medicines that affect bone formation).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a treatment for deep gum disease pockets using a combination of your own blood components (injectable platelet-rich fibrin) and a bone graft material. It aims to help regenerate bone lost to periodontitis.
This trial tests a new way to treat advanced gum disease using special light therapy and growth factors from your own blood to help the gums heal better after surgery. If you have deep gum pockets and bone loss, this could help save your teeth and improve your oral health.
This trial studies whether adding a biologic medicine to standard non-surgical gum (periodontal) treatment can improve deep gum pockets in certain bone defects. It may help people whose gum disease has specific “intrabony” defects, but you must meet several health and medication rules.
This study tests a new treatment for severe gum disease. It combines a natural blood product (platelet-rich fibrin) with a special albumin gel to help repair bone defects around teeth. The goal is to see if this mixture helps the bone grow back better than standard treatment.
This study tests a new injectable treatment using your own blood cells to help repair damaged gum tissue and bone around teeth affected by periodontal disease (gum disease). The goal is to see if this minimally invasive approach can regenerate healthy gum and bone without major surgery.
This study tests whether one of two treatments can improve healing of “intra-bony” gum/bone defects around teeth after deep cleaning. It may help some people with periodontal disease who have pockets deep enough to involve the bone but with certain health and dental conditions.
