Trial summary

Patients with high standards of oral hygiene frequently search for buccal gingival recession (GR) treatment due to cervical wear, root sensitivity and compromising aesthetics. The cervical lesion (NCCL) is commonly produced by improper toothbrushing techniques, sharing the same etiology of GR. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Acellular Dermal Matrix Graft In Root Coverage of Gingival Recessions With Previously Restored Cervical Lesions. A Controlled Clinical Trial

Patients with high standards of oral hygiene frequently search for buccal gingival recession (GR) treatment due to cervical wear, root sensitivity and compromising aesthetics. The cervical lesion (NCCL) is commonly produced by improper toothbrushing techniques, sharing the same etiology of GR. Many different surgical approaches have been described. The association of a graft to the coronally advanced flap had demonstrated the best long-term outcome for root coverage. But, substitutes for the autogenous graft must be studied. Therefore, the aim of this clinical trial was to investigate the effectiveness of the acellular dermal matrix graft (ADMG) in root coverage associated with a previous restored cervical lesion or not.

Material and methods: Seventeen individuals with bilateral GR were included in the study. At one side, the GR must present a previously restored cervical lesion, as the test group (TG). The contralateral arch, must present GR with an intact root surface (CG). All patients were treated with the extended flap technique associated with the ADMG. All clinical parameters were assessed at baseline and 6-months postoperative.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Root coverage with extended flap technique and acelular dermal matrixProcedure or surgery

    At one side, the root coverage have been done with a extended flap technique and acellular dermal matrix and there was no cervical lesion. At the other side, the same technique was performed, but the gingival recession was associated with a noncarious cervical lesion.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Root coverage

    Root coverage is measured by the difference between the gingival recession height at 6 months and baseline

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Keratinized tissue

    The difference between keratinized tissue width and depth at 6 months and at baseline.

    Measured: 6months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Root coverage with extended flap technique and acelular dermal matrix in people with Gingival Recession, run by University of Sao Paulo at 1 site in Brazil.

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 2 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 7 Aug 2018. 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 Brazil. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

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 7 Aug 2018.
