Filter by:Subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) is considered the gold standard treatment for root coverage in Miller Class I and II single gingival recession. Therefore, scientific evidence is limited for multiple gingival recessions, only with extrapolation from single-tooth data. Depending on area and depth during the removal of the graft from palate, connective tissue presents different anatomic characteristics, geometric shapes and histological composition. Possibly different types of SCTGs present distinct volumetric stability and physiological process of revascularization. This randomized, split-mouth, double blind clinical trial aim to evaluate periodontal parameters (complete root coverage, gingival recession depth and width, gingival thickness, width of keratinized tissue, probing depth, clinical attachment, plaque and bleeding index) and gingival blood flow in recipient sites, comparing sites that received SCTG from palatal area with predominance of lamina propria and predominance of submucosa. Clinical measurements will be evaluated at baseline and 3, 6 and 12 months after surgical procedure. Blood flow flowmetry with laser doppler (LDF) will be analyzed at baseline and 3, 7,14 and 28 days after surgery. Participants will be invited to answer a questionnaire of aesthetic satisfaction and symptoms of pain and discomfort. Two experienced periodontists blind to experimental groups will be invited to observe the clinical outcomes and answer an aesthetic questionnaire. Data analysis will be performed by paired t-test if follow normal distribution or Wilcoxon if follow nonnormal distribution with significance level of 5% (p <0.05).
The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT) is to determine the efficacy hyaluronic acid (HA) in combination with the coronally advanced flap (CAF) for the treatment of single gingival recession site. The hypothesis is that HA will result in improved the clinical outcomes and will reduce the pos-operative morbidity
A clinical and radiographic evaluation of using Erbium, Chromium, Scandium, Gallium and Garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG) laser in recipient site bio-modification and de-epithelialized connective tissue graft harvesting compared to conventional scalpel surgical technique in the treatment of class I and II Miller gingival recession.
This research will be conducted in an attempt to achieve complete root coverage with physiologic probing depth and a harmonious view with the adjacent tissues using Platelet rich fibrin in conjunction with Coronally advanced flap and subepithelial connective tissue graft.
Subepithelial connective tissue grafts (SCTG) are accepted as the gold standard in covering denuded root surfaces. Combining enamel matrix derivatives (EMD) with periodontoplasic surgical operations is another method in covering denuded root surface. The aim of this study is to compare a SCTG operation group and EMD applied group in addition to SCTG using complete root coverage rate and a newer method root coverage esthetic scoring system (RES).
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).
Limitation of donor site and significant postoperative morbidity are often described in connective tissue graft harvesting. We want to show if mucoderm used in tunnel technique to recover miller class I and II recessions defects could be an alternative to connective tissue graft.
Rationale: Treatment of gingival recession defects requires coronal advancement of the gingival margin due to patient esthetic demand, tooth sensitivity and improvement of tooth prognosis, which can be accomplished either through a flap procedure or through a tunnel. It will be desirable to determine the efficacy of Vestibular Incision Subperiosteal Tunnel Access (VISTA) to Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) procedure and intrasulcular tunneling. Another aspect of the study is to determine whether autologous concentrate of platelets and leukocytes (leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin; L-PRF) has equivalent efficacy to connective tissue autologous graft harvested from the palate. The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic modalities for the treatment of multiple gingival recession defects. The study is designed as a prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial. Four groups will be compared: Group 1: Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) Group 2: VISTA Group 3: Intrasulcular tunneling (IST) Group 4: VISTA + L-PRF Each of the groups will be treated without any graft material in order to examine the efficacy of coronal advancement and periodontal root coverage without the confounding variable of graft material. These techniques don't require any additional graft if there is adequate amount of keratinized gingiva The study population will be patients who present to Advanced Graduate Program in Periodontology at the University of Southern California, USA, and are deemed to require treatment of multiple gingival recession defects. A total sample of 100 participants (23 participants per group) will provide a two sided test of means with 80% power at alpha of 0.05. The calculation was carried out using PASS Version 12 (Hintze, J. (2014). NCSS, LLC. Kaysville, Utah.) The study duration will be 1 year. Follow-up visits after the surgery will occur after 3 days , 7 days and at weeks 3, 6, 12, 24, 36 and 52. These follow up visits consistent with standard of care follow up for gingival recession treatment and there will be no additional costs to the participant. The Primary Outcome variable is complete root coverage; the Secondary Outcome Variables are clinical attachment level (CAL) gain, changes in gingival thickness and volume and the Tertiary Outcomes are aesthetic outcomes, postoperative pain and Patient satisfaction survey
Objective: Titanium-prepared platelet-rich fibrin (T-PRF) is activated with titanium, which results in a more mature and aggregated form than PRF. In our previous studies, we established that the fibrin carpet formed with titanium had a firmer network structure, and longer resorption time in the tissue than the fibrin carpet formed with glass. The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to compare the effects of autogenous T-PRF and CTG. Materials and methods: A total 114 Miller Class I/II gingival recessions with abrasion defects will be treated either T-PRF (63 teeth) or CTG (51 teeth) using a modified tunnel technique. Clinical periodontal indexes, keratinized tissue (KTW), gingival thickness (GT) and recession depth (RD) will be recorded before surgery and at 6 and 12-month follow-up examinations. The Visual Analog Scale and healing index scores will be assessed.
The objective of this randomized controlled clinical study was to evaluate the increase in the volume of peri-implant gingival tissue in implants installed in the aesthetic areas with the use of subepithelial-conjunctive tissue graft, and a sample of 40 individuals with implants Aesthetics where the test group (n = 20) will receive tec graft. (N = 20) will receive only the dental implant without the placement of a tec graft. Epithelial-conjunctival.
