Table 4 Qualitative analysis results of bone density and probing depth
Study ID | Groups | Surgical intervention | Outcomes | Results | Bone density | Probing depth | Conclusion |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Shoreibah (2012) [45] | T1:Corticotomy n = 10 T2:PAOO n = 10 | T1: Full-thickness flaps were reflected, and vertical decortication was performed. T2: Full-thickness flaps were reflected,and vertical decortication was performed combined with bone grafting. | Probing depth Bone density | Bone density decreased in T1 by 17.60% vs. an increase of 25.85% in T2. Probing depth decreased in T1 Group by 1.43 mm vs. 1.56 mm in T2 Group. |
|
| PAOO increased the alveolar bone density, and there was no significant difference between the groups in regards to probing depth. |
Bahammam (2012) [46] | T1:Corticotomy n = 11 T2: PAOO n = 22 | T1: Full-thickness flaps were reflected,and vertical decortication was performed. T2: Full-thickness flaps were reflected, and vertical decortication was performed combined with bone grafting. | Probing depth Bone density | Bone density increase of 0.87% in T1 vs. an increase of 22.85% in T2. The probing depth of T1 decreased 0.36 mm vs. 0.37 mm in T2. |
|
| PAOO increased the alveolar bone density, there was no significant differences in probing depth changes between the two groups. |
