On each subject, a microbiological test was performed before periodontal initial therapy and after osseous surgery (one year later). Five compromised teeth were chosen for each patient (the same teeth, before and after surgery), for a total of 190 teeth. Real-time PCR based analysis computed total bacterial load of the samples and quantified six periodontal pathogens:<jats:italic>Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia<\/jats:italic>,<jats:italic>Treponema denticola, Fusobacterium nucleatum<\/jats:italic>and<jats:italic>Prevotella intermedia<\/jats:italic>.
