Probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL) and cone\u2010beam computed tomography (CBCT) horizontal\/vertical bone loss were assessed at baseline and 9\u2009months.

The adjusted mean difference was \u22120.22\u2009mm (95% CI: \u22121.43 to 0.99\u2009mm).

As the upper bound of the confidence interval remained below the prespecified non\u2010inferiority margin, MINST was considered non\u2010inferior to MIST for the primary outcome. When evaluated against the strict +1.0\u2009mm margin, MINST achieved statistical non\u2010inferiority for gingival recession (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.003) and vertical bone gain (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.015).

PROMs revealed significantly lower root hypersensitivity and improved oral\u2010health\u2010related quality of life in the MINST group at 2\u2009weeks; however, these differences were not sustained at later timepoints.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Within the limitations of this randomised controlled trial, MINST with EMD showed clinical and radiographic outcomes generally comparable to MIST in mandibular Class II furcation defects. While non\u2010inferiority against a strict 1.0\u2009mm margin was successfully established for the primary outcome (PPD) and specific secondary parameters, it could not be formally confirmed for CAL or horizontal bone gain. MINST was associated with significantly improved short\u2010term PROMs during the early healing phase.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
