Emdogain® is a biology-based product, which promotes the predictable re-growth of hard and soft tissues lost due to periodontal disease.
With its extensive scientific documentation, its ease of use and the flexibility required to manage areas that are difficult to treat, Emdogain is clearly the reliable solution for periodontal treatment.
Emdogain is indicated for:
1-, 2- and 3-wall intrabony defects
Recession defects
Class II mandibular furcation defects with minimal interproximal bone loss
Emdogain is convenient and effective to use in difficult-to-treat areas such as interproximal areas, defects distal to the second molar, defects located under bridgework and wide defects.
Note: Histological studies in intrabony defects have demonstrated results ranging from complete periodontal regeneration (newly formed cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone) to repair including new connective tissue attachment (connective tissue adaptation via new cementum) and new attachment mediated by an epithelial attachment (long junctional epithelium).
The long-term stability of the regenerated tissue has not been established. As in any periodontal surgical therapy, defect morphology, surgical technique and host response are important parameters for successful outcomes.
