NCT03886051

Brief Summary

This study attempts to assess the effect of orthodontic treatment on the stability of pre-orthodontic recession coverage by connective tissue graft- a randomized controlled clinical trial and thus facilitate better evidence based treatment protocol.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • recession depth

    • Recession depth (REC) recorded in mm from the cementoenamel junction to the crest of the gingival margin at the deepest point

    approximate 14 months

Study Arms (2)

test group

EXPERIMENTAL

Connective Tissue Graft before Orthodontic treatment

Procedure: Connective Tissue Graft before Orthodontic treatment

control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Orthodontic treatment only

Procedure: Orthodontic treatment only

Interventions

Scaling and root planing will be performed and after resolution of periodontal inflammation, root coverage will be done using sub - epithelial connective tissue graft. Orthodontic treatment will be 3 months following the grafting procedure.

test group

Scaling and root planing will be performed and after resolution of periodontal inflammation, orthodontic treatment will be initiated.

Eligibility Criteria

Age16 Years - 25 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Age 16-25 yrs.
  • Anterior tooth displaying Miller's class III gingival recession.
  • Gingival recession depth ≥ 2mm
  • Arch length tooth material discrepancy ≤ 4 mm in anterior teeth which can be treated orthodontically without indication for planned extraction.
  • At the time of enrollment, the patient not having trauma from occlusion.
  • Presence of clinically identifiable cementoenamel junction.
  • Patient demonstrating compliance for maintaining good oral hygiene after Phase I treatment.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient having any systemic illness (such as diabetes, hyperthyroidism, autoimmune diseases, etc.) that is known to affect the periodontium or outcome of periodontal treatment.
  • Aggressive Periodontitis
  • Patients taking medications such as corticosteroids or calcium channel blockers, which are known to interfere with periodontal wound healing or patients on long-term NSAIDS treatment.
  • Patients allergic to medication (local anaesthetic, antibiotic, NSAID).
  • Pregnant or lactating women.
  • History of recent periodontal treatment within 6 months prior to the study.
  • Teeth Displaying Miller's class III/class IV gingival recession.
  • The presence of severe cervical abrasion, erosion or root caries that would require restoration and cervically restored teeth.
  • Patients indicated for planned extraction during orthodontic treatment.
  • Gingival recession in due to extrusion of the tooth.
  • Mobile teeth.
  • Non-vital tooth.
  • Smokers and tobacco chewers.
  • Patients with Oral Piercing.
