Enamel matrix derivative monotherapy versus combination therapy with bone grafts for periodontal intrabony defects: An updated review.

This systematic review evaluated the effectiveness of combining enamel matrix derivative (EMD) with various bone grafts in periodontal regenerative surgery, specifically targeting intrabony defects. Randomized controlled trials with 12-month follow-ups were included. Clinical outcomes assessed included clinical attachment level, probing depth, gingival recession, and radiographic defect fill.
