About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Gingival Recession focused on measuring gingival graft, free gingival graft, coronally advanced flap, reduced keratinized gingiva

Eligibility Criteria

20 Years - 45 Years (Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Presence of Type I or II (Miller Classification) of gingival recession

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Smoking
  • Pregnancy or lactating
  • Presence of any systematic diseases can affect the periodontal surgery.
  • Subjects with significant moderate to severe periodontal disease.
  • Patients under orthodontic treatment
  • Presence of restorative materials (e.g. crown)
  • Effectiveness of frenum
  • Subjects have failed to maintain good plaque control.
  • Subjects having previous surgical treatment for covering the recession in the chosen area.

Sites / Locations

  • Department of Periodontics, University of Damascus Dental School

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Mucograft

Connective tissue graft

Arm Description

One side of the mouth will be subjected to Mucograft in this split-mouth study design.

The opposite side of the mouth will be subjected to a connective tissue graft.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in the Clinical Attachment Level Index
Clinical Attachment Level is dependent on measuring the pocket depth as well as the amount of gingival recession using specific tools. The measurement is going to be recorded in millimeters.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in Probing Depth
Probing depth is going to be measuring using a specific tool (UNC-15 probe).
Change in Gingival Recession
Gingival recession is measured from the cemento-enamel junction to the gingival margin of the recessed tissues.
Change in Gingival Biotype
Gingival biotype is assessed by an endodontic file which used to determine the thickness of the gingival tissues (i.e. thick or thin).
Change in Root Coverage Index
The amount of root exposure will be measured and compared to the total length of the root
Change in Resistance to Muscular Pull
The cheeks or lips are going to be retracted by hand or by a mirror in order to see the movement of the free gingival tissues. The movement will be esitmated in millimeters.
Change in Color Match Index
Shrinkage index at three months
Shrinkage index at six months

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Twenty patients with gingival recession will be enrolled in this trial. Gingival recession will be treated in one side by applying Mucograft® with coronally advanced flap (CAF) while on the opposite side a connective tissue graft (from the palate) will be applied with a CAF. Patients will be followed for 3 and 6 months by measuring the clinical indexes and statistical analyses will be performed to compare the results and to assess the success of Mucograft®.
Detailed Description
Many surgical techniques have used to treat gingival recession such aas repositioned flaps, autologous soft tissue grafts (connective tissue graft or free gingival grafts) or allografts like acellular dermal which can be used as substitutes for palatal donor tissue. Mucograft® (3D collagen matrix) is also an allograft from porcine origin and is designed for soft tissue regeneration and considered the ideal solution to autogenous soft tissue grafts and it provides an ideal matrix for blood vessel and soft tissue ingrowth.
