Microsurgery and Periodontal Healing

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Periodontal Diseases

In brief

Scientists do research to answer important questions which might help change or improve the way we do things in the future. The investigators know that using glasses with special attachments that provide magnification (dental loupes) for dental procedures results in better healing than not using magnification. This study will test if using a microscope, that gives much higher magnification, can result in even better healing than using dental loupes.
