Trial summary

Gingival recession is defined as the apical shift of the marginal gingiva from its normal position on the crown of the tooth to levels on the root surface beyond the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ).Various surgical procedures including repositioned flaps as well as autogenous and other type grafts have been used in the… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Can a Periosteal Pedicle Flap Replace the Subepithelial Connective Tissue Graft in the Management of Gingival Recession? Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Gingival recession is defined as the apical shift of the marginal gingiva from its normal position on the crown of the tooth to levels on the root surface beyond the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ).Various surgical procedures including repositioned flaps as well as autogenous and other type grafts have been used in the treatment of gingival recession.The present gold standard technique is the bilaminar technique using the subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) which provides for long-term stability but also increases tissue morbidity.Hence, a suitable alternative technique - the periosteal pedicle flap (PPF) - has been practiced, which is less invasive, does not require a second surgical site, and provides a graft of adequate dimensions.

What participants receive

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

  • SCTG followed by coronally postionting flapProcedure or surgery

    The SCTG will be harvested from the palate followed by coronally postionting flap

  • periosteal flap followed by coronally postionting flapProcedure or surgery

    he periosteal pedicle graft obtained is then turned over the exposed root surface then followed by coronally postionting flap

What is being measured

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

  1. the percentage of root coverage (%RC)

    to measure the coverage percentage of root recession by UNC periodontal probe Preoperative recession depth - Postoperative recession depth /Preoperative recession depth x 100

    Measured: at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. recession depth

    to measure vertical recession by UNC periodontal probe from cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) to the gingival margin.

    Measured: at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment

  2. recession width

    to measure horizontal recession by UNC periodontal probe the distance between the CEJ and the gingival margin

    Measured: at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment

  3. clinical attachment gain

    to measure the periodontal attachment gain after treatment by UNC periodontal probe subtracting the sulcus depth from the distance between the free gingival margin and the mucogingival junction.

    Measured: at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment

  4. keratinized tissue gain

    measure the gain in keratinized gingivaby UNC periodontal probe from the most apical point of the gingival margin to the mucogingival junction (MGJ) at the middle buccal point.

    Measured: at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SCTG followed by coronally postionting flap and periosteal flap followed by coronally postionting flap in people with Gingival Recession, run by Assiut University.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

the percentage of root coverage (%RC) (time frame: at base line, 1 month and 3 months after treatment). 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 31 Jul 2024.
