comparison of clinical and radiographic parameters in the application of cross-linked hyaluronic acid 1.8% and enamel matrix derivative in periodontal regeneration.

Conditions: Chronic Periodontitis; Periodontal Bone Loss

Summary: the aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness in periodontal regeneration of cross-linked hyaluronic acid at 1.8% (hyadent bg®) with enamel matrix derivative (emdogain®) in periodontal bone defects evaluating their clinical and radiographic variables.

a high molecular weight polysaccharide, hyaluronic acid, also known as hyaluronan or hyaluronate, has recently been studied as a promising mediator for periodontal regeneration. it has a significant role in mineralized and non-mineralized periodontal tissues for the functioning of its extracellular matrices. it has a multifunctional role in periodontics including the stimulation of cell migration, proliferation and differentiation and the acceleration of wound healing by stimulating angiogenesis. it is used in surgical procedures due to its osteoinductive potential. ha is a key element in soft periodontal tissues, the gingiva and periodontal ligament, and in hard tissue, such as alveolar bone and cementum. it has many structural and physiological functions within these tissues. this research proposes two experimental groups to whom one of them will be applied cross-linked hyaluronic acid at 1.8% and another group with enamel matrix derivative, and a control group. the investigator's hypothesis is that the hyaluronic acid shows potential for periodontal regeneration when evaluating its clinical and radiographic variables and when compared with the use of enamel matrix derivative.

Eligibility criteria:
