Aim: The aim was to compare the effect in improvement of periodontal pocket depth (PPD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) between application of 4MATRIX and 4 MATRIX combined with PRF in advanced periodontal disease during follow-up of 6, 12 and 18 months.
Methods: Thirty patients of both genders aged 25-50 years were included. The patients were clinically and radiologically diagnosed with generalized advanced chronic periodontitis with the presence of periodontal pockets with a depth of ≥ 5 mm bilaterally in the upper jaw.
Background: Periodontal disease also called gum disease is a serious gum infection that damages the soft tissue and, without treatment, can destroy the bone and result in different types of alveolar bone defects. That means that periodontal pockets are present and registered only in case of periodontal disease.
Objective: The aim of this study is to observe the effect of 4MATRIX and PRF application in the treatment of infrabone defect over case report.
Background: In patients with T2DM, the therapeutic effects of conservative treatment are quite limited, and there is a need for additional therapeutic procedures to achieve the desired satisfactory and solid effect. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) has an anti-inflammatory effect, and is used to heal lesions. This mechanism is realized through inhibition of lipopolysaccharides (LPS), so it can be used in the treatment of periodontal disease in patients with diabetes.

Introduction: One of the most important types of microorganisms in the oral cavity in both healthy and non-healthy individuals is Fusobacterium nucleatum. Although present as a normal resident in the oral cavity, this Gram-negative pathogen is dominant in periodontal disease and it is involved in many invasive infections in the population, acute and chronic inflammatory conditions, as well as many adverse events with a fatal outcome.
Aim: To determine the role of F.
