ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is exploring a new surgical method called the Non-incised Papillae Surgical Approach (NIPSA) combined with a connective tissue graft and a special treatment called Emdogain. The goal is to see if this combination can better help patients with advanced gum disease (periodontitis) and significant loss of bone support around their teeth.

To participate in this study, you need to be between the ages of 65 and 74 and have been diagnosed with periodontitis. Eligible patients should have certain conditions, such as gum pockets deeper than 5 mm and specific types of bone defects. Participants will undergo the new surgical treatment and will be monitored for its effectiveness. It’s important to note that those with certain health issues or specific dental problems will not be able to join the study. If you are interested or think you might qualify, this could be a chance to contribute to improving treatments for gum disease.
