If endpoints are not met after Step 3, do not extend the protocol indefinitely — refer to a periodontist or consider repeat surgery / instrumentation.
1 Final endpoint check
Endpoint: PPD ≤ 4 mm with no BOP, no suppuration. Compare to pre-surgical baseline. If endpoints met → enter SPT. If not met → consider repeat instrumentation, repeat surgery, or specialist referral.
