Active clinical trials for "Gingival Recession"

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of platelet rich plasma (PRP) combined with coronally advanced flap plus acellular dermal matrix application (CAF+ADM) in the treatment of multiple adjacent gingival recessions (MAGRs). 12 patients with 84 Miller Class I or II recession defects were participated. Sites were randomly assigned into CAF+ADM+PRP or CAF+ADM groups. Gingival recession depth (GRD), recession width (GRW), width of keratinized tissue (WKT), creeping attachment (CRA), root coverage (RC) as well as plaque index, gingival index, probing depth (PD), and clinical attachment level (CAL) were recorded at baseline and 3rd,6th and 12th months postoperatively. The data were analyzed statistically.

The purpose of this study is to test if the thickness of the graft taken from the roof of the mouth, has a significant effect on the amount of attached tissue and the amount of root coverage that are attained when treating a single tooth with gingival recession.

The aim of this study was to assess the clinical efficacy of the acellular porcine derived collagen matrix (PADM) in comparison with connective tissue graft (SCTG ) in the treatment of multiple adjacent gingival recessions (MAGR). The primary objectives of the study were to evaluate mean and complete roots coverage. Additionally, the secondary objective was to evaluate and compare the clinical effectiveness of PADM and SCTG for the treatment of MAGR defects applying modified coronally advanced tunnel technique (MCAT).

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the treatment of multiple gingival recessions associated with non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) using a modified coronally advanced flap in combination with a sub-epithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) on restored root surfaces. Methods: Twenty-three systemically healthy subjects, who were positive for the presence of three cervical lesions associated with gingival recessions in three different adjacent teeth, were enrolled in the study. The NCCL were each restored prior to surgery by using one of three different materials: composite resin (group 1), resin-modified glass ionomer cement (group 2) or giomer (group 3). The defects were treated with SCTG. Clinical measurements, including plaque index (PI), bleeding on probing (BOP), relative recession height (rRH), probing depth (PD), cervical lesion height (CLH), relative clinical attachment level (rCAL), keratinized tissue height (KTH), keratinized tissue thickness (KTT), percentage of root coverage (RC), and percentage of cervical lesion height coverage (CLHC) were recorded at baseline, 3 and 6 months, and 1 year postoperatively.

Our primary objective in this clinical intervention study, therefore, was to explored the effect of residual tissue thickness on the palatal mucosa healing from baseline to 1, 3 and 6 months after free gingival graft harvesting in order to determine as soon as possible to re-harvest gingival graft from same site.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of microsurgical and macrosurgical approaches on CPFs plus SCTGs for the treatment of localized gingival recession defects (Miller class I or II) over the course of 6 months based on clinical periodontal parameters, periodontal phenotypes, and the postoperative complaints and satisfaction levels of the patients. We hypothesized that root coverage achieved through microsurgery in Miller I or II gingival recessions would improve clinical periodontal outcomes and the periodontal phenotype, with greater postoperative comfort and aesthetic satisfaction in comparison with conventional macrosurgical techniques. Miller Class I and II gingival recession defects, at least 3.0 mm deep, were selected and randomly assigned to receive micro or macrosurgical techniques. Both techniques were performed using a coronally positioned flap with a subepithelial connective tissue graft. Plaque and gingival indices, gingival recession depth and width, probing pocket depth, bleeding on probing, clinical attachment level, width of keratinized gingiva, aesthetic score and percentage of root coverage, postoperative complaints, and satisfaction of the participants completing the study were evaluated at follow-up 1st, 3rd and 6th months.

A total of 24 healthy non-smoker patients requiring FGG recruited for the study. Subjects were equally and randomly assigned into two groups. Test group, local application of HYADENT BG on both donor and recipient sites. Control group, application of normal saline on both sites as placebo. The FGG dimensions were evaluated at 1, 3- and 6-month recall using digital photographs. Post-operative pain was evaluated for 14 days. Color matching and patient satisfaction were evaluated at 6 months.

The aim of the present study is to evaluate, whether use of the modified free gingival graft (mod-FGG) technique improves treatment outcomes after surgical root coverage at mandibular incisors with gingival recession defects.

This study evaluates laser de-epithelialized gingival graft to be as effective as subepithelial connective tissue graft in management of multiple gingival recessions using tunneling technique. half pf participants will be treated from gingival recession using tunneling technique with laser de-epithelized gingival graft, while the other half will be treated using tunneling technique with subepithelial connective tissue graft.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Gintuit compared to a free autogenous graft using donor tissue harvested from the subject's palate in the treatment of subjects who have an insufficient zone of attached gingiva associated with at least two non adjacent teeth. The trial is designed to demonstrate non-inferiority between treatment and control in the change in amount of attached gingiva over the 6 month observation period. Gintuit will be placed as a graft in one of the deficient zones, and a free autogenous graft will be placed in the other. The grafts will be evaluated clinically to determine the change in the amount of attached gingiva and on at least three subjects, a small biopsy will be taken to allow histologic evaluation and comparison of both grafts.
