Clinical Trial Summary

45 sites in 15 patients with periodontal pockets ≥ 5mm were selected. These selected sites were divided into 3 groups as Group A, B and C.

Description:

Group A (Control): 15 sites received only SRP, Group B: 15 sites received SRP with subgingival placement of amnion membrane, Group C: 15 sites received SRP with subgingival placement of Amnion membrane hydrated with Taurine.
