Detailed Description
This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open, active comparator-controlled study with a parallel group, subject-paired design (i.e. the effect of both treatments can be observed in the same subject).
Subjects must have two quadrants of their mouth that each have at least two teeth with one or more pockets per tooth that are 5-8 mm in depth. Subjects having more than 2 quadrants will have the first 2 quadrants randomized to receive two different treatments (one quadrant root planing and one quadrant PSR procedure) from the group of available quadrants.
Investigators will assess the efficacy of the Periodontal Structure Repair device (PSR) as measured by a reduction in pocket depth.

Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Subjects must be in stable health as determined by lack of clinically significant abnormalities as assessed at screening.
- Subjects must have a minimum of 2 teeth with a pocket depth of 5 to 8 mm per quadrant in at least two quadrants of the mouth with bleeding on probing.
- Signed and dated informed consent form, meeting all criteria of current FDA regulations and approved by the assigned IRB.
- Subject must be willing and able to follow all the post treatment oral hygiene requirements.
- Subjects must be in stable systemic health.
Exclusion Criteria:

- Subjects who demonstrate during the pre-treatment prophylaxis cleaning visit that they cannot adequately comply with post treatment dental hygiene requirements of the study.
- History or current evidence of chronic infectious disease, system disorders, organ dysfunction, cardiovascular disorders, stroke, renal or hepatic disorder, diabetes or bleeding disorders that may prevent the subject from tolerating the scaling and root planing or PSR device and procedure or any significant clinical illness within 90 days of the study start. If any doubt is present regarding the accuracy of the subject's medical history or their suitability to participate, appropriate consultation, e.g., the Chief Medical Officer of InClinca (the CRO) should be sought or the subject excluded.
- Wears braces or had any dental procedures within 2 weeks of entering the study. Any significant dental issues noted during the screening oral examination. Any ongoing clinically significant trauma or infectious diseases in the oral cavity.

- History of psychiatric disorders occurring within the last two years that required hospitalization or medication.
- Receipt of an Investigational drug as part of a research study within 30 days or 10 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to entry into the trial.
- A clinically significant abnormality is detected in the subject's screening blood or urine samples (clinical chemistry, hematology, or urinalysis) that in the opinion of the investigator should prohibit inclusion into the trial.
- Positive test results for HIV, Hepatitis B surface antigen, or Hepatitis C antibody at screening.
- Subject is not able to communicate well with the Investigator, to understand and comply with the requirements of the study, or to understand the written informed consent
- Subject is not suitable to participate in the study in the opinion of the Investigator
- Teeth with any furcation defects or mobility >2 will be excluded from treatment in both arms of the study.
- Medication that alters or affects healing such as chemotherapy, immune-suppressive medications within two months of study start.
- Subjects having received doses of corticosteroids in excess of 20mg per day within 2 months of study start.
- Subjects who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant during the course/duration of the clinical trial period.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Periodontal Structure Repair (PSR)
Periodontal pockets treated with PSR
|
Following local anesthesia, initial pocket preparation will be done by bur abrasion utilizing specially designed burs to plane the root surface and remove the inner lining of the pocket.
Following bur abrasion, thin strips of gauze sponge are placed into the created space.
After removing the gauze strips, PSR is inserted to fill the spaces beginning at the pocket bottom.
The final step is placing a layer of cyanoacrylate on both the gingival margin and tooth supragingivally.
|
Active Comparator: Standard Root Planing (SRP)
Periodontal pockets treated with SRP
|
Ultrasonics and hand instruments are used to remove any subgingival deposits on the roots.
Standard instruments and standard application are used.
Visual or instrument tactile inspection is used to verify the roots are hard-smooth and have been adequately cleaned.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in periodontal pocket depth compared to standard root planing at 8 weeks
Time Frame: 8 weeks
|
The pocket depth is measured using a Williams' periodontal probe.
The probe is inserted into the pocket until resistance is met.
The depth of the pocket is measured in millimeters (mm) indicated on the probe.
Measure the distance from the gingival margin to the tip of the periodontal probe.
Each pocket will have six measurement taken around the tooth.
The pocket depth measurements to be performed: buccal mesial, buccal, buccal distal, lingual mesial, lingual, lingual distal.

An acceptable safety profile at Visit Week 8 as evidenced by no clinically significant increase in the occurrence of select adverse events
Time Frame: 8 weeks
