Evaluation of Geistlich Fibro-Gide® in Comparison to CTG for the Treatment Around Implants
- Conditions
- Soft Tissue Defect

- Procedure: Soft tissue flap + Connective Tissue GraftDevice: Soft tissue flap + Geistlich Fibro-Gide®
- Registration Number
- NCT04703738
- Lead Sponsor
- Geistlich Pharma AG
- Brief Summary
This double blind, randomized, parallel study evaluates the non-inferiority of Geistlich Fibro-Gide® in comparison to connective tissue graft for soft tissue volume augmentation around dental implants
- Detailed Description
A total sample size of 60 subjects (n=60) will be evaluated at 5 centers, by 6 Investigators with approximately 10-subjects per Investigator. Power analysis based on 80% power, past Thoma, Zeltner and González-Martin studies 1,2,3 and a one-sided confidence interval of 0.025, indicates that with a volume change standard deviation between 0.5 and 0.7 mm, 17-31 subjects are required per group (test and control), so 50-60 subjects are an acceptable estimate, with a preference for 60, given potential loss to long-term follow-up.

- taking medications that compromise wound healing, such as chronic steroid use - either inhaler or systemic, calcium channel blockers with secondary hyperplastic tissue reactions, anti-seizure medications, IV bisphosphates for bone metabolic diseases, radiation or other immuno-suppressive therapy.
- acute infectious lesions in the areas intended for surgery.
- History within the last 6 months of weekly or more frequent use of nicotine products
- Female subjects who are pregnant or lactating, or sexually active female subjects who are of childbearing potential and who are not using hormonal or barrier methods of birth control
