Treatment of intrabony defects with modified perforated membranes in aggressive periodontitis: a 4-year follow-up of a randomized controlled trial

ConclusionsGTR of intrabony defects in AgP with either standard or modified CM yielded similarly successful and maintainable clinical benefits for compromised teeth 4  years following the surgery. The use of MPM showed no additional benefit.Clinical relevanceThis study demonstrates that most of the positive outcomes of GTR in AgP may be preserved over 4  years. Periodontitis recurrence might influence long-term outcomes.
