Filter by:This study deals with coverage of multiple denuded roots. The current standard treatment requires surgical correction and uses soft tissue taken from the roof of the mouth to enhance results. The hypothesis of this trial is that a synthetic collagen matrix (called Mucograft) can be used to replace soft tissue taken from the subject. If the collagen matrix will prove to be equally as effective as the patient own tissue, it will be possible to avoid a more extensive surgery and decrease pain and discomfort.
The aim of this study is to test a surgical technique for the treatment of gingival recessions. The hypothesis of the study is to promote greater root coverage and better healing.
Different surgical techniques have been proposed for root coverage, showing varying results especially in areas of deep recessions. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the newly forming bone technique (NFB)as an alternative treatment for Miller class I or II deep recessions, requiring regeneration of lost periodontal tissues. Sample should be comprised of patients aged 18-45 years, both genders, presenting at least one site with marginal tissue recession >4mm. Patients will be randomly assigned to either one of the groups, based on treatment technique: newly forming bone (NFB) or subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG). Clinical examinations will be performed by a single blinded examiner at baseline, 1, 3, 6 and 9 months after surgery. Intra-group analysis will be performed by one way analysis of variance for repeated measures. Inter-group analysis will be performed by unpaired t-test for each of evaluation periods.
The purpose of this research study is to understand more about wound healing of gum tissue. Fluids collected from between a tooth and the gum and directly from wounds contain proteins that occur in different levels as the wound healing process proceeds. In this research study wound fluid will be collected from the donor palate site (roof of your mouth) and the treated sites on your gum before and after placement of CelTx or conventional treatment (tissue from the roof of your mouth) to measure which proteins and how much of each are present during the first 4 weeks of wound healing.
The purpose of this multi-center study is to determine the efficacy and safety of Mucograft® in combination with the coronally advanced flap (CAF) for the treatment of gingival recessions. It is assumed that the CAF combined with Mucograft® will result in improved outcome in terms percentage of root coverage and soft tissue thickness in comparison to CAF alone (control).
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether clinical parameters for Puros Dermis are, at minimum, equivalent when compared to AlloDerm, the current industry standard, for the treatment of single, non-adjacent Miller's Class I or II gingival recession.
The aim of this study is to compare the clinical outcomes of root coverage procedures, using coronally advanced flap in combination with acellular dermal matrix with or without enamel matrix derivatives .
The purpose of this study is to evaluate CelTx as an alternative to tissue from the palate in the treatment of subjects with Miller Class I or II recession defects who desire root coverage. It is anticipated that this study will demonstrate that CelTx is a safe alternative to palatal tissue and demonstrate potential to enhance oral soft tissue regeneration and wound healing.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate Gintuit as a safe and effective alternative to palatal tissue in the treatment of subjects (with recession-type defects) who have an insufficient zone of attached gingiva associated with at least two nonadjacent teeth.
