NCT04970524

Brief Summary

In this study, the conventional SDG method applied to increase the adherent gingival band and partial de-epithelialized SDG methods were evaluated in terms of aesthetics and color compatibility of the recipient area with adjacent tissues. This study is a controlled double-blind clinical trial randomized by split-mouth, envelope method.Clinical parameters and aesthetic harmony were compared at postoperative 1st, 3rd and 6th months after surgical procedures.Color harmony evaluation was made in 2 different ways, both by photo analysis of a blind researcher using computer software and by visual evaluation of the same blind researcher.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • aesthetic evaluation of both surgical methods

    Aesthetic evaluation of both surgical methods was done by a blinded researcher by photo analysis. For photo analysis, photographs of the recipient area were taken at the beginning and 6 months after the operation with the help of Adobe Photoshop program and evaluated on these photographs.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • clinical parameters

    change in post-op 6 months

Study Arms (2)

control group(conventional free gingival graft)

EXPERIMENTAL

Conventional free gingival grafts are applied to the areas of the patients determined by randomization as suggested by Sullivan and Atkins.

Procedure: Comparison of conventional free gingival graft versus partial free gingival graft

test group(Partially de-epithelialized free gingival graft)

EXPERIMENTAL

Partial free gingival graft is applied to the areas of the patients determined by randomization. Unlike the control group, the epithelium on the graft was partially epithelialized.

Procedure: Comparison of conventional free gingival graft versus partial free gingival graft

Interventions

Conventional free gingival graft was applied to the area of the patient with attached gingival insufficiency determined by randomization. Clinical and aesthetic comparisons were made in the postoperative 1st, 3rd and 6th months.
