Clinical Trial Summary

The main objective is to analyze post-surgical periodontal healing after conventional periodontal surgery where an absorbable suture coated with clorhexidine (Novosyn Clorhexidine) versus conventional sutures without chlorhexidine (Novosyn) will be used a pilot randomized clinical study has been designed. Up to authors´ knowledge until now there are no studies to evaluate periodontal healing after periodontal surgery in combination with this kind of sutures.


Clinical Trial Description

A total of 60 patients will be included, where the unit of study will be each stitch, among the patients attending the Dental Clinic Service of the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) who require surgical periodontal treatment. The patients will be randomly divided into two groups: the control group using a conventional suture (n=30), and the test group using a suture coated with chlorhexidine diacetate (n=30). Suture in the control group: absorbable suture of polyglactin 910 coated with polyglactin 370 + calcium stearate without chlorhexidine (NOVOSYN) Suture in the test group: absorbable suture of polyglactin 910 coated with polyglactin 370 + calcium stearate and chlorhexidine diacetate (NOVOSYN CHLORHEXIDINE) The primary variable in this study is post-surgical healing in both groups, which will be assessed using the healing index. ;
