About this study
Official title: Treatment of Intraosseous Periodontal Pockets by Non-surgical Therapy With Micro-instruments and Application of Hyaluronic Acid. A Randomized-controlled Clinical Trial
The aim of the present investigation will be evaluate the healing of periodontal intraosseous defects following Minimally Invasive Non Surgical Debridement (MINSD) and application of a hyaluronic acid-based gel, compared to MINSD alone.
A total of 22 patients will be enrolled, selected by inclusion and exclusion criteria and randomly divided in two groups: hyaluronic acid group (HA) and no-hyaluronic acid group (No-HA).
Read the detailed description
The objective of the study will be compare the healing of periodontal intraosseous defects following treatment with Minimally Invasive Non Surgical Debridement (MINSD) and application of hyaluronic acid (HA) compared to MINSD alone.
Twenty-two patients with intraosseous periodontal defects will be randomly assigned to treatment with MINSD and application of a hyaluronic acid-based gel (HA Group) or MINSD alone (No-HA Group).
Primary outcome will be "Probing Depth" (PD), while the secondary outcomes will be "Clinical Attachment Level" (CAL) gain, "Gingival Recession" (GR) and "Radiographic Defect Angle" (RDA).
After local anesthesia, in HA group MINSD will be performed using an ultrasonic scaler with fine tips and micro-curette; then, a hyaluronic acid-based gel will be applied to the intraosseous periodontal pockets.
In the No-HA group, only subgingival mechanical debridement (MINSD) will be performed with an ultrasonic scaler with fine tips and micro-curette.
Finally, a polishing paste will be applied to the supra-gingival level in both groups using a rubber cup. Patients of both groups will be recalled every month for professional oral hygiene and, after 6 months, all measurements will be repeated and the final evaluation will be carried out.

- Model description
- The study will be designed as a double-arm randomized controlled clinical trial.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Change of Probing Depth (PD) (millimeters) (time frame: baseline and 6 months after periodontal therapy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05188898, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Apr 2024.
