- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Gingival thickness (GTH). Timepoint: before intervention and 6, 12 months after intervention. Method of measurement: Direct measurement was done with the help of using endodontic file No. (15) with a silicone limiter under local anesthesia. Then the thickness was determined by using electronic digital caliper (High quality LCD Display Electronic Digital Vernier Caliper, china). When the thickness was <1 mm it was categorized as thin biotype and when the thickness was =1 mm it was categorized as thick biotype.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Gingival Biotype. Timepoint: 6, 12 months after intervention. Method of measurement: When the thickness was <1 mm it was categorized as thin biotype and when the thickness was =1 mm it was categorized as thick biotype.;Width of keratinized gingiva (WKG). Timepoint: before intervention and 6, 12 months after intervention. Method of measurement: measuring the distance between gingival margin and mucogingival junction.
