NCT05470660

Brief Summary

This study aims to assess the effect of micro-needling together with coronally advanced flap procedure on the gain of gingival thickness (GT) and keratinized tissue width (KTW) and compare it to Alloderm with coronally advanced flap procedure in the management of thin periodontal phenotype associated with recession type 1 (RT1)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Gingival thickness (GT) in mm

    Gingival thickness (GT) will be specified at a mid-buccal location approximately 1 mm apical to the probing depth (PD) level with a #15 endodontic spreader. The reamer will be pierced, perpendicularly to the mucosal surface, through the soft tissue with light pressure until a hard surface is felt. The silicone disk stop will then be placed in tight contact with the soft tissue surface and fixed by a drop of cyanoacrylate adhesive; after careful removal of the reamer, penetration depth will be measured with a caliper to the nearest 0.1 mm gingival thickness changes will be calculated after 6 months

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Keratinized tissue width (KTW) in mm

    6 months

  • Clinical Attachment Level (CAL) in mm

    6 months

  • Gingival Recession Depth (RD) in mm

    6 months

  • Gingival Recession Width (RW) in mm

    6 months

  • Percentage of root coverage

    6 months

Study Arms (2)

Root coverage using coronally advanced flap combined with micro-needling

EXPERIMENTAL

modified coronally advanced flap will be performed in sites of recession defects, then micro-needling will be performed after 1 month from the coronally advanced flap procedure to ensure the initial flap healing

Procedure: Root coverage using coronally advanced flap combined with micro-needling

coronally advanced flap combined with Alloderm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

modified coronally advanced flap will be performed in sites of recession defects in Association with alloderm to cover the exposed root and 3 mm of connective tissue mesial and distal to it.

Procedure: coronally advanced flap combined with Alloderm

Interventions
