U.S., Nov. 7 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07922577) titled 'Bioactive Glass With or Without a Collagen Membrane for Periodontal Intrabony Defects' on Nov. 02.
Brief Summary: Periodontitis can cause loss of the bone supporting the teeth. Regenerative surgery aims to repair these defects and improve tooth support. Bioactive glass is a synthetic bone graft material used to fill periodontal bone defects. A resorbable collagen membrane may be placed over the graft to support healing, but its additional long-term benefit remains uncertain.
This randomized clinical trial compared bioactive glass alone with bioactive glass covered by a resorbable collagen membrane in 40 participants with periodontal...
