About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare safety and to see if individuals with generalized stage III periodontitis that are given a periodontal hydrogel dressing on a wound healing after plaque and tartar have been removed from teeth have greater healing than individuals who are given no treatment after.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Subjects will have read, understood, and signed an institutional review board (IRB) approved Informed Consent Form (ICF).

Subjects 30 to 75 years of age.

Generalized Stage III periodontitis with at least 8 teeth having interproximal clinical attachment level of ≥3 mm and a probing pocket depth of ≥5 mm and ≤7mm, distributed between the mandible and the maxilla, with at least 2 qualifying interproximal sites in each arch. Localized and not more than 6 sites with a PD of 8 mm is acceptable as long as the tooth with 8 mm pocket depth is not clinically diagnosed as hopeless tooth with suppuration or mobility Grade 3 or greater.5-7

Subjects have a minimum of 24 natural teeth with a minimum of 2 natural teeth per quadrant excluding third molars.

Disqualifiers

Periodontal surgery, implant placement or SRP within 12 months prior to screening or a cleaning/prophylaxis three months prior to screening.

Presence of fixed or removable (e.g. Invisalign) orthodontic appliances.

Subject with an underlying medical condition which requires antibiotic prophylaxis prior to dental treatment.

Subjects with vesiculobullous processes or other similar chronic oral lesions / conditions resulting in gingival irritation, discomfort/pain, or erosions.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Effectiveness on periodontal wound healing compared to control as evidenced by the presence/absence of gingival bleeding

Change in Bleeding on Marginal Probing (BOMP) over time at 60 Days post non-surgical therapy

Time frame
60 Days post non-surgical therapy

Secondary outcomes

1

Effectiveness on periodontal wound healing compared to control

As evidenced by change in Modified Gingival Index (MGI)

Time frame
60 Days post non-surgical therapy
2

Effectiveness on periodontal wound healing compared to control

As evidenced by change change in Pocket Depth (PD) over time in sites with baseline pockets \>/=4mm

Time frame
60 Days post non-surgical therapy

Other outcomes

1

Effectiveness on periodontal wound healing compared to the historical treatment effect of non-surgical therapy

Change in Pocket Depth (PD) over time in sites with baseline pockets \>/=4mm at 60 days post non-surgical therapy

Time frame
60 Days post non-surgical therapy
2

Feasibility of usage of the Emanate Perio PODS twice a day group

Feasibility will be characterized by compliance at Day 15 post non-surgical therapy

Time frame
Day 15
3

Feasibility of usage of the Emanate Perio PODS twice a day group

Feasibility will be characterized by Dropout rate pre-treatment and at day 15 and Day 30

Time frame
Pre-treatment, Day 15, Day 30
4

Feasibility of usage of the Emanate Perio PODS twice a day group

Feasibility will be characterized by mouthpiece fit and comfort as measured using the VAS at Day 0 and at Day 15 post non-surgical therapy

Time frame
Pre-treatment, Day 15
