Gingival Recession, Localized Clinical Trial
Official title:
Comparison of Subepithelial Connective Tissue Grafts Harvested From the Maxillary Tuberosity or Lateral Palate in the Treatment of Single Maxillary Recession-type Defects
The goal of this randomized clinical study is to assess the root coverage outcomes and patient morbidity following the treatment of single maxillary recession-type defects using a coronally advanced flap (CAF) combined with a subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) harvested from the maxillary tuberosity (MT) versus lateral palate (LP). The secondary objective is to evaluate the histological characteristics of graft compositions harvested from the different regions (MT versus LP). Therefore, the following questions related to the study are raised: - Do SCTGs harvested from MT (tSCTG) and LP (pSCTG) exhibit similar root coverage outcomes in the treatment of single maxillary recession-type defects using CAF? - What are the histological characteristics of tSCTG and pSCTG? A total of 30 patients who have been referred to the Gazi University Department of Periodontology will be randomly assigned to receive tSCTG or pSCTG in combination with CAF. Clinical measurements will be recorded at baseline, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgeries. Immediately after interventions; a questionnaire evaluating post-operative pain, discomfort, sensitivity, and bleeding will be given to the patients. The amount of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs used will be recorded at 1, 2, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days after surgery. Descriptive morphologic analysis of the grafts will be assessed in terms of the presence of inflammatory cells, connective tissue cellularity, vascularization, adipose tissue, and collagen structure.
