Summary

This is a single centre, randomised, single-blind, parallel-group clinical trial that aims at evaluating the use of imaging (2D and 3D) in obtaining geometric and thermometric changes of postoperative healing patterns and comorbidities (facial swelling, oedema and inflammation) following two routine surgical procedures performed for the treatment of periodontal (gum) disease.

Conditions

  • Healing Wound
  • Periodontitis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Simplified papilla preservation flap

The simplified papilla preservation flap (SPPF) surgery is a conservative surgical procedure aimed at the preservation of the tissues between the teeth providing access for the debridement of the root surface in sites with residual pockets.

PROCEDURE

Resective periodontal flap with osseous recontouring

The Resective periodontal flap with osseous recontouring (RPFO) is a surgical procedure that achieves predictable pocket depth reduction by soft and hard tissue resection to obtain a more convenient soft and hard tissue architecture for oral hygiene.
