Gum surgery showdown: one flap or two?
NCT ID NCT06058923
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two types of minimally invasive gum surgery for treating deep pockets caused by periodontitis. Fifty adults with advanced gum disease will be randomly assigned to receive either a single-flap or double-flap procedure. Researchers will measure how well each technique reduces pocket depth, improves gum attachment, and affects patient comfort over 12 months.
