View clinical trials related to Gingival Recession, Localized.
Filter by:Gingival recessions (GR) are often associated with non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL), resulting, thus, in a combined defect. This mucogingival condition has a different treatment prognosis when compared with a GR without wearing surface associated and frequently requires a surgical-restorative approach to achieve better esthetics and functional results. A limited number of clinical studies assessed different multidisciplinary protocols for the management of single combined defects and there is evidence that the use of dental materials does not harm the periodontal tissues and does not influence the root coverage obtained by means of subepithelial connective tissue graft (CTG). Although the association between coronally advanced flap (CAF) and CTG provides more predictable and stable outcomes in the long term, its use is related to some drawbacks. Different biomaterials have been developed to overcome these limitations as a possible alternative to autogenous graft. However, despite its potential, there is a lack of studies evaluating its use in treating this type of condition. Thus, this study aims to assess from a clinical and esthetics point of view and patient-centered outcomes, the use of a new collagen matrix (Geistlich Fibro-Gide®) associated with CAF for the management of single combined defects. For such purpose, 50 patients with single RT1 gingival recessions associated with NCCL will be enrolled and randomly allocated to one of the following groups: control group (n=25), partial restoration of cervical lesion and coronally advanced flap for root coverage (PR+CAF) and test group (n=25), partial restoration of cervical lesion and coronally advanced flap associated with volume stable collagen matrix (PR+CAF+VCMX). The two groups will be compared regarding the clinical parameters, among which bleeding on probing (BOP), biofilm accumulation (IP), clinical attachment level (CAL), recession reduction (RecRed), and the percentage of combined defect coverage (%CDC). Patient-reported outcomes such as post-surgery pain and discomfort, time to recover, the decrease of dentin hypersensitive, and aesthetics will be gathered. A professional assessment will be carried out regarding the aesthetic parameters. All these evaluations will be performed at the baseline and three and six months postoperatively.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of retraction techniques on gingival health. Four different method (212 clamp (Hu-Friedy, USA); Brinker B4 clamp (Coltene Hygenic, USA); dental floss using the simple knot tie method; and using the simple knot tie and 212 clamp together) will evaluated. After rubber dam isolation restorations will be performed, each restoration will take maximum 30 minutes. Changes in periodontal tissues will be evaluate; using plaque index, bleeding on probing, probing depth, keratinized gingiva, attached gingiva, relative gingival margin level, relative attachment level and VAS (visual analogue scale) scoring and patient comfort levels after the procedure at different times (pre-restoration, after restoration, 1 week, 1 month, 3 month). The evaluation time is planned not to exceed 10 minutes, restorations are done by a single specialist in Marmara University Restorative Dentistry Department.
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of Botulinum Toxin-A (BTX-A) injection to the mental muscle on the free gingival graft (FGG) operation. Forty patients with Miller class III gingival recession and keratinized gingival insufficiency in their lower 1st incisors were divided into 2 groups as FGG operation (n=20) and 5 unit (U) BTX-A injection into the mental muscle immediately after FGG operation (n=20). Periodontal parameters (plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD), keratinized gingival amount (KGA), attached gingival amount (AGA)) were measured from the lower 1st incisors at the beginning and at the 1st, 3rd and 6th months after the operation, clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival thickness (GT), gingival recession amount (GRA), gingival recession width (GRW) and root closure percentage (RCP (%)) were evaluated. There was no statistically significant difference in terms of PI and GI levels (p>0.05). The PPD levels of the study group at the postoperative 3rd month was found to be statistically significantly lower than the control group (p<0.05). While the change in GT and RCP (%) levels were found to be statistically significantly higher than the control group, the change in GRW and CAL levels were statistically significantly lower (p<0.05). According to the results of this study, it can be stated that BTX-A injection applied to the mental muscle after FGG operation may have positive effects in terms of KGA, AGA, GT, RCP (%), GRW and CAL parameters.
The aim of this randomized, parallel-group clinical trial was to compare the 1-year periodontal, root coverage, esthetic, and patient-centered outcomes of the partial restoration placement with different apical margin levels combined with coronally advanced flap (CAF) plus connective tissue graft (CTG) in the treatment of isolated gingival recessions associated with non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL). Forty patients with single gingival recessions (RT1 gingival recessions and class B+ NCCL) were randomly allocated to either placement of restoration apical margin at the level of estimated cementoenamel junction (CEJ) or within 1 mm apical to the CEJ. Two weeks after the restorative treatment, all recession defects were treated with CAF combined with CTG. Periodontal measurements were taken at baseline, and 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. Patient-centered outcomes were evaluated at baseline, and 7, and 15 days, 6, and 12 months postoperative follow-ups. Modified root closure aesthetic score (mRES) was used to assess aesthetics at 6 and 12 months follow-ups.
Gingival recession is the term used to describe the apical positioning of the marginal gingiva from the enamel-cementum junction. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has been routinely used for more than 20 years to increase keratinized gingival thickness and to close gingival recessions due to the growth factors it contains. In the literature, there are studies evaluating the application of i-PRF with the microneedling technique, but there is no study evaluating the creeping attachment phenomenon and the closure percentage of gingival recession with the creeping attachment after the application of this technique. The aim of this study is to evaluate the closure rates of gingival recession and creeping attachment phenomenon after i-PRF application with microneedling technique. Systemically healthy and non-smoker patients older than 18 years of age with gingival recession in mandibular anterior teeth and keratinized gingival deficiency will be included. Before the procedure, the venous blood taken from the patient will be centrifuged at 700 RPM for 3 minutes in glass and non-addition tubes to obtain i-PRF. The prepared i-PRF will be infected to the apical mucogingival junction of the keratinized gingival area. This process will be repeated once a month for 3 months. After the 3rd month, the horizontal and vertical gingival recession values will be evaluated and recorded at the end of 6 months and 1 year.
