Summary
This study follows 30 adults who had surgery for advanced gum disease (periodontitis). Researchers want to see if the surgery keeps teeth healthy and how long the benefits last. Participants are checked at regular visits with exams and X-rays. This is an observational study, meaning no new treatment is being tested—just tracking real-world outcomes.

Who is studied
All patients aged at least 18 years old have been treated for periodontitis through subgingival debridement. During re-evaluation, remaining pockets were found despite adequate oral hygiene. Depending on the anatomy of the defect, resective or regenerative surgery was performed. Patients were included if resective or regenerative periodontal surgery was performed \< 6months ago and an informed consent was signed.
