Filter by:The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare frenotomy to frenectomy surgical techniques in the management of high frenum attachment in adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does Frenotomy procedure have a lower relapse rate compared to frenectomy? - Does Frenotomy procedure result in fewer postoperative complications? Participants will be divided into two groups. The intervention group will involve frenotomy procedure for participants and will be compared to the traditional frenectomy procedure in the comparator group. The level of the frenum will be measured at baseline and after 6 months. Pain scores will be recorded by the participants during the first week.
In patients with high frenal attachment will placement of free gingival graft combined with frenotomy result in gain of width of keratinized gingiva, decrease relapse, improve mucosal healing and have acceptable postoperative pain?
The aim of present study was to compare the keratinized gingival tissue measurements, degree of subjective complaints, and functional complications of using an 980 nm diode laser versus a scalpel for frenectomies. Thirty-six patients requiring frenectomies, between 18 and 51 years old, were randomly assigned to either scalpel or diode laser treatments. The soft tissue measurements, including the keratinized gingiva width (KGW), attached gingiva width(AGW), and attached gingiva thickness (AGT), were recorded before surgery, immediately after, one week later, and one, three, and six months after surgery. In addition, the functional complications and the morbidity (level of pain, swelling, and redness) were evaluated during the first postoperative week using a visual analog scale (VAS). The VAS scores indicated that the patients treated with a diode laser had less discomfort and functional complications compare with scalpel surgery.
