Biological treatments for deep gum bone defects
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older
- You must have already completed non-surgical gum cleaning, but still have deep gum pockets of 6 mm or more
- The bone defect in your gum must be a certain type (non-contained or 2-wall defect) that needs surgery
- You must be in generally good health (classified as ASA I or II)
- You cannot smoke
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding

This trial tests two different bone-filling materials combined with a gum graft to repair deep pockets in your gums caused by gum disease. The goal is to help your gums heal and regain support around your teeth.
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 gel made with polynucleotides and hyaluronic acid placed into deep gum pockets after a special surgery. The goal is to help bone and gum heal better in teeth that show when you smile.
This trial tests a special gel made with growth-promoting compounds and animal-derived material to help repair deep bone loss in the gums around teeth. It may help restore bone that periodontitis (advanced gum disease) has damaged.
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 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.
