Effect of Amnion Membrane With and Without Taurine on GCF TNF α Level.

March 13, 2021 updated by: DR SURINDER SACHDEVA, Maharishi Markendeswar University (Deemed to be University)

Efficacy of Subgingivally Placed Amnion Membrane With and Without Taurine as an Adjunct to Scaling and Root Planing in the Treatment of Chronic Periodontitis

45 sites in 15 patients with periodontal pockets ≥ 5mm were selected. These selected sites were divided into 3 groups as Group A, B and C.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Group A (Control): 15 sites received only SRP, Group B: 15 sites received SRP with subgingival placement of amnion membrane, Group C: 15 sites received SRP with subgingival placement of Amnion membrane hydrated with Taurine.
