Non-incised papillae surgical approach (NIPSA): Periodontal reconstructive surgery
marginal approach by palatal incision: Periodontal reconstructive surgery
Minimally invasive surgical technique (MIST): Periodontal reconstructive surgery
Study summary
Three techniques for periodontal reconstruction will be compared, in which marginal access versus apical access will be carried out.

Inclusion Criteria:
* patients diagnosed with periodontitis.
* plaque index and bleeding index of \< 30%.
* periodontal lesions with pocket probing depth \> 5 mm.
* intrabony defect \> 3 mm.

Exclusion Criteria:
* patients with systemic diseases that contraindicated treatment.
* third molars.
* teeth with incorrect endodontic or restorative treatment.
Primary outcome measure(s)
Probing pocket depth (PD) — 12 months Probing pocket depth will be assessed with a periodontal probe, measured in mm from the gingival margin to the bottom of the pocket
Clinical attachment level (CAL) — 12 months Clinical attachment level will be assessed with a periodontal probe, measured in mm from the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the bottom of the pocket.
Recession (REC) — 12 months Recession, will be assessed with a periodontal probe, measured in mmm on the buccal aspect, from the CEJ to the gingival margin zenith.
Location of the tip of the papillae (TP) — 12 months Location of the tip of the papillae. Taking as reference the level of the mid-axis of the tooth, will be measured the distance from the CEJ at the zenith of the tooth to the tip of the papilla. A positive value will be recorded when the tip of the papillae is located coronally to the CEJ and a negative value otherwise.
This outcome will be assessed with a periodontal probe and measured in mmm.
Keratinized tissue width (KT) — 12 months Keratinized tissue width will be assessed with a periodontal probe, measured in mm on the buccal aspect, from the gingival margin to the mucogingival line.
Bleeding on probing — 12 months Bleeding on probing could be positive or negative.
