About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Gingival Recession focused on measuring Gingival Recession, Semilunar flap, Enamel matrix derivative, Periodontal regeneration

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 60 Years (Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age ≥ 18 years;
  • Presence of at least one Miller Class I gingival recession ≥ 2 mm or ≤ 4mm in maxillary canines or premolars with identifiable cementum-enamel junction (CEJ);
  • Height of keratinized tissue ≥ 2 mm;
  • Aesthetic complaint and/or presence of dentin hypersensitivity to air stimulus;
  • Full-mouth visible plaque index ≤ 20% (Ainamo & Bay 1975);
  • Full-mouth sulcus bleeding index ≤ 20% (Mühlemann & Son 1971).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Smoking;
  • Pregnancy;
  • Presence of systemic disorders (diabetes, hypertension, heart disease or any other condition that could contraindicate periodontal surgery);
  • Use of medications (immunosuppressants, phenytoin or anything else that might affect mucosal healing and repair);
  • Previous periodontal surgery in the area.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of this study will be evaluate clinically the use of the Semilunar Coronally Positioned Flap (SCPF) for the treatment of gingival recessions, with or without Enamel Matrix Derivative (EMD). Thirty patients will be assigned in two groups. Half of patients will receive EMD associated to SCPF, while the other half, will receive SCPF alone.
Detailed Description
The aim of this study will be evaluate clinically the use of the Semilunar Coronally Positioned Flap (SCPF) for the treatment of gingival recessions, with or without Enamel Matrix Derivative (EMD). Thirty patients will be selected, randomized and allocated in two groups: test group (SCPF + EMD) and control group (SCPF). The subjects will should present buccal Miller class I gingival recessions with height greater than or equal to 2.0 mm and less than to 4.0 mm in maxillary canines or premolars. Clinical parameters will be evaluated: gingival recession height (GRH), gingival recession width(GRW), clinical attachment level (CAL), probing depth (PD), height (HKT) and thickness (TKT) of keratinized tissue and papillas height (HP) and width(LP), as well as plaque and gingival index. These data will be collected at baseline and 180 days after surgery.
