About this study

Official title: Clinical Evaluation of the Impact of Periodontal Phenotype on the Outcome of Laterally Positioned Flap in Isolated Gingival Recession

The aim of this study is to estimate the effect of periodontal phenotype on the outcome of isolated gingival recession by laterally positioned flap.The primary objective of study is to assess the changes in gingival margin in the donor tooth after laterally positioned flap over a period of 6 months and to assess the influence of periodontal phenotype on the stability of results of root coverage achieved through laterally positioned flap. The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate root coverage by laterally positioned flap in thick periodontal phenotype and to evaluate root coverage by laterally positioned flap in thin periodontal phenotype.

Read the detailed description

A variety of surgical techniques have been proposed to achieve successful and predictable root coverage. These include coronally advanced flap, lateral positioned flap (LPF) free gingival graft, free connective tissue graft, and guided tissue regeneration. LPF, originally described by Grupe and Warren in 1964 is one of the most commonly performed root coverage technique.The procedure has undergone various modification over the years .Staffileno and pfeifer and Heller advocated the use of split-thickness flap to minimize the potential risk for the development of recession in the donor tooth.Wood et al used re-entry procedures to compare crestal radicular bone responses to full and partial thickness flaps. They concluded that regardless of the flap procedure, loss of crestal bone depended on the periodontal phenotype.The term periodontal phenotype refers to phenotypic characteristic of bone and soft tissue that make up the periodontium. Periodontal phenotype is typically used to describe the buccolingual tissue thickness and gingival morphology. It is divided into thick flat and thin scalloped type. However there is a paucity of studies in the literature studying the effect periodontal phenotype on the root coverage obtained and its stability over time after LPF. Furthermore the impact of periodontal phenotype on the donor area in this procedure has not been explored. Therefore the present study is designed with the aim to evaluate the influence of periodontal phenotype on the outcome of root coverage by LPF.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Laterally positioned flap in thick periodontal phenotype. and Laterally positioned flap in thin periodontal phenotype. in people with Gingival Recession, run by Postgraduate Institute of Dental Sciences Rohtak at 1 site in India.

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 3 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jun 2020. 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 India. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact RAJINDER SHARMA (01262283876, rksharmamds@yahoo.in), or a site near the patient. 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 4 Jun 2020.
