Study Summary
This trial will compare the effectiveness of using a membrane to reduce pocket depth and improve attachment after scaling and root planing of teeth with periodontal disease.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18+ with moderate to severe chronic gum disease, having at least one tooth on each side of the mouth with specific levels of gum pocket depth. Participants should be in good or stable health (ASA Class I or II) and not pregnant, nursing, or have had recent periodontal therapy.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if adding a product called BioXclude™ (dHACM) to standard dental cleaning procedures can better reduce gum pocket depth and improve tooth attachment than cleaning alone. It's a comparison between mechanical scaling and root planing with and without dHACM.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not detailed but may include discomfort, swelling, infection risk increase at the treatment site due to the addition of dHACM during dental procedures.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Deep Cleaning and InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
One side of the participant's mouth will receive a deep cleaning in addition to the placement of a BioXclude™ membrane in the deep pocket sites. The participant will then be followed for 9 months with routine care.
Group II: Deep Cleaning OnlyActive Control1 Intervention
One side of the participant's mouth will receive deep cleaning (scaling and root planning) only. The participant will then be followed for 9 months with routine care.
