Enamel Matrix Derivative and Xenograft for Mandibular Molar Furcation Defects

17 augusti 2026 uppdaterad av: Vy Truong Tuong Huynh, University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City

Efficacy of Enamel Matrix Derivative Combined With Xenograft in the Treatment of Furcation Defects in Mandibular Molars

This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to compare two regenerative surgical approaches for the treatment of mandibular molar Class II furcation defects in patients with periodontitis. Eligible furcation defects will be randomly assigned to receive either xenograft bone combined with enamel matrix derivative (EMD) or xenograft bone combined with a collagen membrane. Both approaches are used to support periodontal tissue regeneration.

Participants will be followed for approximately 7 months. The study will evaluate postoperative pain and patient-reported satisfaction, periodontal clinical parameters, changes in furcation defect volume and relative bone density on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), and changes in gingival crevicular fluid TWEAK levels. Clinical and radiographic outcomes will be assessed before surgery and during follow-up, including at 3 and 6 months after surgery.

The study is intended to determine whether xenograft bone combined with EMD provides clinical, radiographic, biological, and patient-reported outcomes comparable or superior to xenograft bone combined with a collagen membrane in the regenerative treatment of mandibular molar Class II furcation defects.

Detaljerad beskrivning

This is a randomized controlled clinical trial involving patients with periodontitis who have Class II furcation defects affecting mandibular first and/or second molars. A total of 24 eligible teeth are planned, with 12 teeth assigned to each treatment group.

Before surgery, participants will undergo clinical periodontal examination, intraoral three-dimensional scanning, CBCT imaging, and gingival crevicular fluid collection. Clinical measurements include plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD), vertical clinical attachment loss (VCAL), and horizontal clinical attachment loss (HCAL).

Eligible defects will be randomly assigned to one of two regenerative surgical treatments. Following flap elevation, debridement, root surface cleaning, and conditioning with 24% EDTA, the control group will receive xenograft bone covered with a resorbable collagen membrane. The experimental group will receive enamel matrix derivative applied to the defect-related root surface, followed by xenograft bone combined with enamel matrix derivative. The flap will then be repositioned and sutured.

Postoperative pain will be assessed using a visual analog scale, together with analgesic consumption and patient-reported satisfaction regarding swelling and chewing ability. Participants will return for follow-up at approximately 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery. Gingival crevicular fluid will be collected during follow-up for measurement of TWEAK concentration.

At 3 months, selected periodontal and biological assessments will be repeated. At 6 months, periodontal clinical measurements, intraoral three-dimensional scanning, furcation defect classification, and CBCT imaging will be repeated to evaluate changes in defect volume and relative bone density.

The primary purpose of the study is to compare the regenerative effectiveness of xenograft bone combined with enamel matrix derivative with that of xenograft bone combined with a collagen membrane for the treatment of mandibular molar Class II furcation defects.

Experimentell: Xenograft + Enamel Matrix Derivative
Procedur: Periodontal Regenerative Surgery With Xenograft and Enamel Matrix Derivative
Periodontal regenerative surgery is performed using xenograft bone combined with enamel matrix derivative (EMD). After flap elevation, thorough defect debridement, and root surface conditioning with 24% EDTA for 2 minutes, EMD is applied to the root surface associated with the furcation defect. The xenograft bone is mixed with EMD and placed to completely fill the defect. The flap is then repositioned and sutured.
Aktiv komparator: Xenograft + Collagen Membrane
Procedur: Periodontal Regenerative Surgery With Xenograft and Collagen Membrane
Periodontal regenerative surgery is performed using xenograft bone combined with a resorbable collagen membrane. After flap elevation, thorough defect debridement, and root surface conditioning with 24% EDTA for 2 minutes, the xenograft bone is mixed with sterile saline and placed to completely fill the furcation defect. A trimmed resorbable collagen membrane is positioned to completely cover the defect and secured before flap repositioning and suturing.

Åtgärdsbeskrivning
Tidsram
Change in Probing Pocket Depth (PPD)
Tidsram: Baseline and 6 months after surgery
Probing pocket depth (PPD) is measured in millimeters from the gingival margin to the base of the periodontal pocket using a UNC-15 periodontal probe at the mesiobuccal, buccal, and distobuccal sites of the treated tooth. Measurements are standardized using an individualized acrylic stent. The change in PPD from baseline to 6 months after surgery will be compared between the two treatment groups.

Change in Horizontal Clinical Attachment Loss (HCAL)
Tidsram: Baseline and 6 months after surgery
Horizontal clinical attachment loss (HCAL) is measured in millimeters from the buccal entrance of the furcation to the deepest horizontal point of the furcation defect using a Nabers periodontal probe and an individualized acrylic stent.
