NB, bone gain
Out of the 10 patients, 6 were male and 4 were female. The age group ranged from 25–45 years. At three months and six months following surgery, every patient came back for a follow-up evaluation. Clinical investigation of the post-grafting healing revealed excellent soft tissue responses to both materials, and no unfavorable side effects were noticed or reported.In ten individuals, a total of 20 bilateral abnormalities were treated. Ten defect sites received NB + AM treatment, while ten defect sites received NB + BM treatment (The mean values of PPD, RAL and defect site depth were higher in the pre-operative period compared to the post-operative period. (For sites treated with AM + NB, the average pocket probing depth, relative attachment level, and initial depth of the bone defect were 8.60 mm, 13.70 mm, and 7.76 mm, respectively, while for sites treated with BM + NB, they were 8.7 mm, 14.10 mm, and 7.96 mm. The baseline of both groups exhibited no statistical difference between the sites treated. PPD for the AM + NB group was 6.10 1.20 at 3 months and 3.40 0.85 at 6 months, which was statistically significant for each group (The RAL for AM + NB was 1.70 ± 0.14 at 3 months and 1.90 ± 0.95 at 6 months while the BM + NB group was 2.90 ± 1.15 at 3 months and 2.70 ± 1.05 at 6 months which was statistically significant (When compared to baseline, both therapy groups considerably improved in terms of defect fill and % bone gain.
