Filter by:Patients with high standards of oral hygiene frequently search for buccal gingival recession (GR) treatment due to cervical wear, root sensitivity and compromising aesthetics. The cervical lesion (NCCL) is commonly produced by improper toothbrushing techniques, sharing the same etiology of GR. Many different surgical approaches have been described. The association of a graft to the coronally advanced flap had demonstrated the best long-term outcome for root coverage. But, substitutes for the autogenous graft must be studied. Therefore, the aim of this clinical trial was to investigate the effectiveness of the acellular dermal matrix graft (ADMG) in root coverage associated with a previous restored cervical lesion or not. Material and methods: Seventeen individuals with bilateral GR were included in the study. At one side, the GR must present a previously restored cervical lesion, as the test group (TG). The contralateral arch, must present GR with an intact root surface (CG). All patients were treated with the extended flap technique associated with the ADMG. All clinical parameters were assessed at baseline and 6-months postoperative.
Evaluation of two dressing materials; a Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) dressing and a non-eugenol-based (Coe-Pak™) dressing in the management of free gingival graft and donor site palatal wound.
The purpose of this study is to compare four different connective tissue graft harvesting technique in terms of graft quality and patient post-operative morbidity
The study will consist of a randomized controlled clinical study trial comparing the results of coronally positioned flap with AlloDerm GBR plus bovine derived xenograft versus coronally positioned tunnel with AlloDerm GBR plus bovine derived xenograft in approximately 30 patients (15 per group). All materials used in the study are FDA approved.
A single center, prospective clinical trial is planned to investigate the effect of different emergence angles of implant restorations on peri-implant soft tissue recession and implant marginal bone loss. The primary outcome is to systematically evaluate the association of implant-, peri-implant tissue-, and restoration-related factors with facial mucosal level changes.
Cigarette smoking is a patient-related factor that can affect healing of periodontal tissues and the success rate of root-coverage procedures. Neither the nature nor the mechanisms of action of cigarette smoking on root coverage are fully understood. Therefore, the hypothesis that cigarette smoking has negative impacts on the outcomes of root coverage after CAF surgery in systemically healthy individuals with an initial gingival thickness of at least 0.8 mm and who practice optimal oral hygiene was tested. It was also hypothesized that baseline analysis of disease-related biomarkers would shed light on the underlying mechanisms of a possible effect.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of two different treatment agents used in conjunction with subepithelial connective graft technique on root coverage outcomes in multiple recession defects. Half of patients will receive root treatment with antimicrobial photodynamic therapy and the other half will receive photobiomodulation therapy by laser on surgery site.
Aesthetics for individuals become increasingly important, while the aesthetic effects of periodontal disease is an important issue that should be assessed by the patient's perception. The results demonstrate that the periodontal aesthetic perception scale showed reliable and valid scores in healthy controls and periodontal patients. The periodontal aesthetic perception scale may be an appropriate tool to assess periodontal esthetic in clinical and research settings.
The present placebo-controlled parallel design clinical study was planned to determine the effect of low level laser therapy on clinical periodontal conditions and dimensions of free gingival graft as well as postoperative pain levels in the surgical area.
Aim: to evaluate the possible benefit on wound healing and flap stability of periosteum inclusion, comparing a "split-full-split" thickness flap elevation versus a "split" thickness approach performed during CAF for the treatment of isolated-type gingival recessions in the upper jaw. Material and Methods: forty patients were randomized, 20 were treated with "split-full-split" (test group) and 20 with a "split" approach (control group). Analyzed parameters at 1 year were: CRC, percentage of Recession Coverage (RC), Keratinized tissue (KT) gain, patient-related outcome measurements.
