Filter by:The goal of this randomized, controlled, single-center study is to compare the effects of Emdogain®, a regenerative biomaterial, on post-operative pain, wound healing and inflammation of treated sites after surgical crown lengthening. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the use of Emdogain® in conjunction with crown lengthening surgery improve post-operative soft-tissue healing, decrease inflammation and reduce patient perception of pain compared to crown lengthening without addition of Emdogain®? The treatment group will receive Emdogain® during surgery, and the control group will undergo standard crown lengthening without Emdogain®.
Setting the restorative margins for teeth with short clinical crowns is challenging and crown lengthening surgery (CLS) is often necessary. The aim of this study was to assess the influence of prosthetic restorative treatment timing on gingival margin location of teeth after crown lengthening surgery. Eighteen patients requiring CLS were enrolled in the study and divided into two groups depending on the timing of prosthetic rehabilitation, at 6 or fourteen weeks after CLS.Clinical parameters were recorded around treated and neighboring teeth with adjacent and non-adjacent sites at 6 and 14 weeks after surgery as well as three and six months after prosthesis delivery. Alveolar ridge changes were assessed via digital X-rays.Soft tissue healing and the final treatment outcome were assessed by both patients and prosthodontists.
