Abstract
Twenty-four periodontal intraosseous defects were accessed with a buccal single-flap approach (SFA) and treated with enamel matrix derivative (EMD) or EMD + deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) according to the surgeon,s discretion. EMD with or without DBBM was clinically effective in the treatment of periodontal intraosseous defects accessed with a buccal SFA. The adjunctive use of DBBM in predominantly one-wall defects seemed to compensate for, at least in part, the unfavorable osseous characteristics in terms of the outcomes of the procedure.
