Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of local application of minocycline microspheres on the periodontal inflammation and bone loss prevention in patients diagnosed with moderate-severe chronic periodontitis within a periodontal maintenance program.

Primary Outcome

Changes in interproximal bone height loss were measured over the course of 24 months in two groups; patients receiving scaling and root planing alone in a deep periodontal pocket and those receiving scaling and root planing as well as minocycline microspheres in a deep periodontal pocket. These changes in interproximal bone height loss (mm) were determined via bitewing radiographs taken at baseline and 24 months and measured as distance from the cemento-enamel junction to the alveolar bone.
