Uso de derivados da matriz do esmalte como coadjuvante da terapia periodontal - relato de caso

Periodontal disease is a multifactorial pathology that leads to the loss of tooth support structures, often compromising function and esthetics. For periodontal treatment to be successful, it is necessary to remove the pathogenic biofilm through scaling and root planning. Currently, the use of proteins derived from the enamel matrix can be associated with periodontal therapy, promoting a better result. The aim of this study was to report a case of periodontal treatment combining scaling and root planning, antibiotic therapy, and enamel matrix derivatives. In this case, it was observed that periodontal treatment associated with enamel matrix derivatives promoted good periodontal tissue healing, favoring the treatment result.
