Study Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether clinical parameters for Puros Dermis are, at minimum, equivalent when compared to AlloDerm, the current industry standard, for the treatment of single, non-adjacent Miller's Class I or II gingival recession.

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, Post-market, Randomized, Examiner-Only Masked multi-center study to evaluate whether clinical parameters for Puros Dermis are at minimum, equivalent when compared to Alloderm, the current industry standard for the treatment of single, non-adjacent Miller's Class I or II gingival recession.

  • No known allergies to study material.
  • Able to communicate with the investigator and read, understand, and sign the informed consent form.
  • Maxillary incisor, canine, or premolar with at least one Miller's Class I or II gingival recession defects that are not adjacent to one another.
  • Depth of the gingival recession defects of 2mm or greater.
  • No gingival surgery within the past 12 months at the defect site. No prior antibiotic use within 3 months with less than 2 weeks durations.
  • Ability to maintain good oral hygiene.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients taking any medications known to cause gingival enlargement.
  • Patients with unstable systemic diseases.
  • Patients with compromised immune systems or unstable bleeding disorders.
  • Patients with active infectious diseases (e.g. hepatitis, tuberculosis, HIV, etc.).
  • Patients with a mental disability that may hinder participation in the study (e.g. inability to follow through with oral hygiene instructions, postoperative instructions, follow-up commitments, etc.).
  • Patients taking steroid medications.
  • Tobacco use or smoking within 1 year of screening visit (e.g. cigarettes, pipes, cigars, chew).
  • Pregnant females or females attempting to get pregnant.
  • Other conditions the investigator feels would inhibit from a good candidate for the study.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Non -Inferiority of Dermis to Alloderm

Time Frame: 12 months

Non -inferiority of Dermis to Alloderm will be assessed by comparison of the average change (from the preoperative value) in gingival recession measured at 12 months between defects receiving Puros Dermis and those receiving Alloderm.

Secondary Outcomes

No secondary outcomes reported
