Chitosan brush and enamel proteins for gum treatment
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to clean deep gum pockets at the base of molars using a chitosan brush and enamel proteins. It's for people who still have gum problems after standard treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have severe gum disease (stage III or IV) that has already been partly treated
- You have gum pockets at the base of at least two molars that need more treatment
- You do not have other illnesses or take medications that could affect the study
- You are willing to attend all follow-up visits and take good care of your teeth at home

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether adding a treatment called Emdogain to a standard deep cleaning helps heal gum pockets better than deep cleaning alone. Emdogain is a gel that helps gums and bone regrow, and it is applied during the cleaning.
This trial tests whether a special enamel protein combined with bone graft material can help repair gum and bone damage around the roots of back teeth (molars). It may improve the health of the area and reduce the need for more serious treatments.
This trial tests whether a gel made from hyaluronic acid helps rebuild bone and gum tissue around teeth as well as a standard treatment (enamel matrix derivative). It's for people with advanced gum disease who have completed initial cleaning and still have deep pockets that need repair.
This trial compares two treatments to help regrow bone and gum tissue around teeth with deep bone defects. It tests if hyaluronic acid works as well as enamel matrix derivative, both applied during a minimally invasive procedure.
This trial tests if a special gel placed in the gums after deep cleaning helps treat periodontitis (advanced gum disease). You may qualify if you have gum pockets of 5mm or deeper that bleed when probed.
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.
