Deep Marginal Elevation and the Periodontal Microenvironment ( DME-PM )

Egypt36 participantsStarted 2025-08-01

Plain-language summary

This study aims to evaluate the impact of the dental restorative procedure known as Deep Marginal Elevation (DME) on periodontal health, including gingival and bone status, in patients with deep dental caries. Gingival fluid samples will be collected, and radiographic assessments will be performed to monitor changes in inflammation and bone levels. The findings are expected to provide insights into how DME influences gingival and bone health.
