This randomized, controlled split-mouth study will include 24-40 patients. After GTR, a test and a control side will be selected by means of a computer-generated randomization list. Test sides will receive a periodontal dressing (Coepak") for 14 days and the control sides will receive no periodontal dressing. After 14 days the periodontal dressing will be removed and the pain experience will be recorded. After 6-9 months, the clinical periodontal parameters will be recorded.
