Two gum treatments for deep bone defects in teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 18 or older
- Have periodontal disease treated with scaling and root planing soon before joining
- Have a gum pocket between teeth that is at least 6 mm deep, with bone support affected (3 to 6 mm)
- Have an intra-bony defect that is not “contained” (1-wall or 2-wall defect) in the upper or lower jaw
- Be able to come back for a 6-month follow-up and follow study instructions

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 trial tests whether early wound healing affects the results of regenerative gum surgery, which aims to rebuild bone around teeth affected by advanced gum disease.
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 study tests a new treatment for deep gum pockets and bone loss caused by periodontitis. The treatment combines a special bone graft material with hyaluronic acid (a natural substance) to help rebuild bone and support the gums.
This trial tests whether biological agents can help heal deep gum bone defects that remain after standard non-surgical cleaning. It may be an option for people who still have deep pockets around their teeth and need a minimally invasive surgical procedure.
This trial compares two treatments for deep pockets caused by gum disease: one uses a natural substance that helps rebuild gum tissue, and the other uses a protein that stimulates the body to grow new bone. If you have a deep pocket that hasn't healed after initial treatment, this study might help you find a better way to restore your gums.
