Online published on 6 April, 2019. Abstract Background The role of chemical root conditioning alone as well as an adjunct with different type of barrier membranes in G.T.R. has been advocated by several investigators. Objective To compare radiographically the effect of guided tissue regeneration with or without tetracycline root conditioning in treating intrabony defects. Setting Department of Periodontics, Subharti Dental College, Meerut Uttar Pradesh, India. Participants 20 patients Sampling Random sampling. Statistical Analysis SPSS 10. And Unpaired student “t” test was applied Results The gain in the Infra I levels was not statistically different in either of the groups i.e. P > 0.05 and P > 0.001 Conclusion Combining GTR technique with the tetracycline root conditioning does not improve the results in either the terms of the defect resolution. Top Keywords Guided tissue regeneration, bioresorbable membranes, tetracycline root conditioning. Top |
