Gingival RecessionNCT02210143
An Explorative Study To Develop A Predictive Model Based On Avascular Exposed Root Surface Area For Root Coverage
An observational study of Gingival Recession, run by Cukurova University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
Trial summary
The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of the avascular root surface area as a prognostic identification criterion for gingival recessions and to compare the predictive value of the Miller classification and avascular root surface area (AERSA) calculation on the final root coverage outcomes.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| AERSA-I gingival recession | The AERSA classification was developed based on 15 mm2 which is the lowest cut-off point and the group of AERSA ≤ 15 mm2 named as AERSA-I (low risk group) | |
| AERSA-II gingival recession | AERSA > 15 mm2 named as AERSA-II (high risk group). | |
| Miller gingival recession | Gingival recessions classified according to Miller |

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Gingival Recession, run by Cukurova University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Complete root coverage (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Aug 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 28 Oct 2026.
