Aim: The study aims to assess the effectiveness of eggshell-derived nanohydroxyapatite (EnHA) as a bone graft material for treating intrabony defects, using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) for evaluation.
Materials And Methods: Ten patients were divided into two groups: Group 1: individuals with 2-wall defects, Group 2: those with 3-wall defects. Follow-up appointments at 1-, 3-, and 6-month intervals included assessments of clinical attachment level (CAL), probing depth (PD), and gingival recession (GR). CBCT scans were conducted pre-operative, immediately post-surgery, and at 1-month, 3-month, and 5-month follow-ups.
Results: In both groups, clinical parameters such as CAL, PD, and CBCT measurements reveal significant decreases in CAL and PD values alongside positive trends in CBCT measurements. Additionally, Group 2 exhibited enhancements in periodontal health, suggesting the potential effectiveness of EnHA.
Conclusion: EnHA demonstrates potential as a substitute for bone grafting in intrabony defects, showing favourable trends in both clinical and CBCT evaluations during a 6-month observation period.

Peri-implantitis is a biofilm-mediated inflammatory condition associated with progressive loss of supporting tissue and poses a significant challenge to clinicians worldwide. Because limited efficacy is associated with nonsurgical therapy, surgical intervention is often required to manage this disease. This article focuses on operator factors when treating peri-implantitis and presents a stepwise approach to eight essential keys for successful regenerative/reparative treatment of peri-implantitis defects.

The objective of this case series was to evaluate the performance of reconstructive therapy for the management of advanced peri-implantitis using recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor-BB as an adjunctive biological agent.
Materials And Methods: A prospective case series study on advanced intrabony peri-implantitis bone defects (≥ 50% bone loss) was performed.
Double-sided Entire Papilla Preservation (DEPP) technique was designed to allow access into a bone defect without compromising the integrity of papilla, when the defect extends to palatal/lingual side. This case-series study aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of periodontal regenerative therapy using DEPP technique for intrabony defects. DEPP was performed with two vertical incisions on both the buccal and palatal sites to access the bone defect.

Objectives: This case series evaluated the clinical efficacy of the novel "lateral approach" combined with an enamel matrix derivative (EMD) and bone grafting in the regenerative surgical treatment of intrabony defects associated with an edentulous ridge.
Material And Methods: The innovative flap, called the "lateral approach," is explicitly designed for regeneration of unchallenged isolated intrabony defects associated with edentulous alveolar ridges. The flap is defined by a curved vertical incision on the buccal side opposite the treated defect and a sulcular incision on the buccal and defect-associated sides, promoting uneventful healing and regeneration while minimizing complications.
