Enamel Matriz Derivate for Treatment of Proximal Class II Furcation Defects: a Randomized Clinical Trial

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the clinical response of proximal furcations treated with enamel matrix derivative proteins (EMD).

Detailed Description

Proximal class-II furcation represents a challeng to periodontal therapy. Studies show that the ultrasonic non-surgical therapy doesn't work in these defects and the guided tissue regeneration therapy with membranes also demonstrates an unpredictable improvement. Therefore, enamel matrix derivative proteins (EMD) have been proposed as a periodontal regenerative procedure due to their fundamental role in cementum development.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosis of generalized aggressive periodontitis (Armitage, 1999; American Academy of Periodontology, 2015);
  • Have undergone a first approach for periodontal treatment (full-mouth ultrasonic debridement);
  • Presence of one proximal class-II furcation presenting probing depth > 4 mm and bleeding on probing ;

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Systemic problems (cardiovascular alterations, blood dyscrasias, immunodeficiency - ASA III / IV / V) that contraindicate the periodontal procedure;
  • Have used antibiotics and anti-inflammatories in the last six months;
  • Smoke ≥ 10 cigarettes/day;
  • Pregnant or lactating;
  • Chronic use of medications that may alter the response of periodontal tissues;
  • Indication of antibiotic prophylaxis for dental procedures;
