About
This is a single centre, randomised, single-blind, parallel-group clinical trial that aims at evaluating the use of imaging (2D and 3D) in obtaining geometric and thermometric changes of postoperative healing patterns and comorbidities (facial swelling, oedema and inflammation) following two routine surgical procedures performed for the treatment of periodontal (gum) disease.
Full description
A surgery in a posterior sextant will be performed per patient. The surgical procedures being compared for their post-operative healing patterns are:
Simplified Papilla Preservation Flap (SPPF) which is a conservative flap aiming at preserving the tissues between teeth. Resective Periodontal Flap with Osseous Recontouring (RPFO) which is a conventional surgery which involves hard and soft tissues resection.
Geometric (3D) surface imaging and thermal (2D) surface imaging will be used to assess the post-operative healing patterns and comorbidities (facial swelling, oedema and inflammation) following either of the surgical procedures.
