Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the clinical effects of non-surgical periodontal treatment, supplemented with enamel matrix derivative (EMD) and/or systemic antibiotics, in deep periodontal pockets of patients with chronic periodontitis.Methods: This was a randomized, placebo-controlled longitudinal clinical trial of 12 months duration. Using a split-mouth design, 16 subjects were randomly assigned to scaling and root planing (SRP) with EMD or placebo in contra-lateral dentition areas. One half of the subjects received 250 mg metronidazole and 375 mg amoxicillin three times a day for 7 days and the other half received a placebo. One inter-proximal periodontal lesion was chosen as study site in each of the contra-lateral quadrants.Results: Subjects treated with systemic antibiotics yielded significantly better clinical results than those treated with placebo. In these cases, probing pocket depth was reduced significantly more after 6 months (3.0 +/- 2.1 mm versus 1.6 +/- 1.4 mm, p=0.05), and the mean clinical attachment gain was significantly greater after 6 months (2.3 +/- 1.9 mm versus 0.7 +/- 1.6 mm, p=0.02) and 12 months (2.3 +/- 3.5 mm versus 0.4 +/- 3.8 mm, p=0.02). Sites treated with the antibiotics plus EMD gained the largest amount of clinical attachment. There was no significant benefit of EMD adjunctive to SRP in subjects not treated with antibiotics.Conclusions: The present study supports the notion that optimal repair and regeneration of the periodontium requires suppression of the microbiota causing periodontal disease.
