Microsurgical vs Macro Surgical Approach for Grade II Gingival Recessions Employing Laterally Repositioned Flap

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Gingival Recession, Localized
• Interventions: Procedure: root coverage

• Registration Number: NCT03654339
• Lead Sponsor: Panineeya Mahavidyalaya Institute of Dental Sciences & Research Centre

Brief Summary

This study was conducted to assess the evaluation of micro and Macro surgical approach in the treatment of grade II gingival recessions using the laterally repositioned flap

Detailed Description

In this study total, 30 patients were selected The patients initially received a comprehensive periodontal examination and complete plaque control program including oral hygiene to eliminate habits related to the aetiology of recession. Scaling, root planning and occlusal adjustments were done The patients were randomly assigned and divided into two groups. Group A and Group B. Patients with miller class II were treated with a laterally repositioned flap to obtain root coverage using conventional macrosurgical approach (15patients) and microsurgical approach(15patients)

The clinical parameters evaluated were height of gingival recession relative clinical attachment level which was measured as the distance from a fixed point in a stent to the bottom of the pocket and gingival biotype at baseline, 3 months and 6 months period

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
experimental group	root coverage	Group A-15 patients were allocated to the microsurgical group for root coverage. following scaling and root planning, the laterally repositioned flap was done using the microsurgical approach Group B-15 Patients were allocated to the conventional group for root coverage following scaling and root planning, the laterally repositioned flap was done using the macrosurgical approach

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
vertical depth of recession	Change in level of gingival margin from baseline to 6 months.	The height of gingival recession: From cementoenamel junction to the free gingival margin.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
horizontal width of recession	Change in horizontal dimension of gingival margin from baseline to 6 months.	The width of gingival recession: Horizontal dimension of gingival defect at the level of Cementoenamel junction..
