Buccal osseous dehiscences were surgically created on the distal roots of the mandibular third and fourth premolars. The defects were exposed to plaque accumulation for 3 months. After this period, the defects were randomly assigned to one of the treatments: GTR with bioabsorbable membrane (PLA), GTR with non\u2010resorbable membrane (ePTFE), open flap debridement (OFD), and non\u2010treated control (NTC). After 3 months of healing, the dogs were sacrificed and the blocks were processed. The histometric parameters evaluated included: gingival recession, epithelial length, connective tissue adaptation, new cementum, and new bone area.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> A superior length of new cementum was observed in the sites treated by GTR, regardless of the type of barrier used, in comparison with OFD (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.05). No statistically significant differences were found between PLA and ePTFE in any of the parameters with the exception of bone area. PLA presented a greater bone area when compared to ePTFE, OFD, and NTC (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt;0.05).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold> Within the limits of this study, it can be concluded that both barriers are equally effective for new cementum formation. The bioabsorbable membrane may provide a greater bone area than the non\u2010resorbable membrane. <jats:italic>J Periodontol 2000;71:1306\u20101314.<\/jats:italic><\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1902\/jop.2000.71.8.1306","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,2,2]],"date-time":"2005-02-02T06:39:40Z","timestamp":1107326380000},"page":"1306-1314","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Comparison of Bioabsorbable and Non\u2010Resorbable Membranes in the Treatment of Dehiscence\u2010Type Defects.
