Observational Prospective Study on Resective and Regenerative Periodontal Therapy: Short & Longterm Follow-up

Sponsor: University Hospital, Ghent

Summary

Periodontitis is a common inflammatory disease affecting approximately 40% of the Belgian population. The goal of this observational study is to learn about the treatment outcomes of surgical periodontal therapy in adults with periodontitis. The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Does subsequent surgical intervention further improve periodontal health parameters? * Is there any significant difference between treatment outcomes of resective and regenerative periodontal surgery. Participants will: \- Undergo surgical periodontal treatment if residual pocket depth ≥6 mm persists despite good oral hygiene. Study inclusion was performed after surgical treatment. \- Be screened on various intervals. If there is any recurrent periodontitis, adequate treatment will be performed In short term, pocket probing depth is our primary outcome and tooth survival is the outcome in the long term. Secondary outcomes in short-term are bone level, mobility, bleeding on probing, tooth survival and cost-effectiveness. Long-term outcomes (\>5 years) are probing pocket depth, bone level, tooth sensitivity, mobility, bleeding on probing and cost-effectiveness.
