Screening, data extraction and quality assessment were conducted. The primary outcome measures were tooth survival (TS) and clinical attachment level (CAL) gain. Pocket probing depth (PPD) reduction and recession (REC) increase were secondary outcome measures. Information concerning clinical and radiological bone gain was also collected.ResultsThe search identified 1170 studies, three articles reporting on (99 subjects/358 teeth) met the inclusion criteria and were included. No tooth was lost during follow-up (8-12months). The adjunctive mean benefit of EMD was: 1.2mm for CAL gain [confidence interval (CI): (0.9, 1.4), p<0.00001, I-2=66%], 1.2mm for the PPD reduction (CI: [0.8, 1.5], p<0.0001, I-2=0%), -0.5mm for the REC increase (CI: [-0.8, -0.2], p=0.003, I-2=0%).
