Non-Incised Papilla Flap in Deep Supraossous Defects

May 29, 2024 updated by: mahetab mohamed abdel el wahab, Ain Shams University

Non-Incised Papilla Flap With and Without Connective Tissue Graft for Management of Deep Supraossous Defects

The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of NIPSA in periodontal lesions with deep supra-alveolar defects, measuring the clinical efficacy of this flap. The non-incised papilla surgical approach (NIPSA) is a novel technique that accesses the periodontal defect from apical direction and was established with the aim of creating clinical advances compared with marginal access techniques.

The defects with a supra-alveolar components are more frequent than intrabony defects, there is very little evidence about their treatment .
