Completed
Conditions
Implant Tissue Failure
Interventions
Procedure: Soft Tissue Enhancement around dental implant
Registration Number
NCT04679922
Lead Sponsor
Mohamed Hamdy Helal
Brief Summary

The aim of this, randomized clinical trial is to determine the clinical efficacy of fascia lata allograft in terms of peri-implant mucosal augmentation, as compared to autologous sub epithelial connective tissue graft, clinically and histologically in human adults .

Detailed Description

The aim of this, randomized clinical trial is to determine the clinical efficacy of fascia lata allograft in terms of peri-implant mucosal augmentation, as compared to autologous sub epithelial connective tissue graft, clinically and histologically in human adults .

The hypothesis of the study is that a similar gain in peri implant mucosal thicknesses will be obtained in sites treated by either a sub epithelial connective tissue graft or a newly developed fascia lata allograft in clinically and histologically in human.

The objective of this study will be to evaluate the efficacy of the peri-implant mucosal thickness enhancement following either subepithelial connective tissue grafts or human Fascia Lata Allograft placed simultaneously with dental implant placement.

Sixteen sites that are indicated for peri-implant mucosal augmentation at the time of implant placement will be selected. Participants will be randomized to the control (simultaneous SCTGs) or test (simultaneous FLA) group.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Peri-Implant Mucosal ThicknessMeasure changes in mucosal thickness around dental implant at base line and after 6 months.

The primary outcome of interest will be to measure changes (in mm) in horizontal PMT on the buccal aspect of the edentulous alveolar ridge from baseline (implant placement and grafting) to (4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks) of post-surgical healing.
