Dimensional Changes of Free Epithelial Graft at Teeth and Implant Sites
- Conditions
- Keratinized Mucosa
- Registration Number
- NCT04410614
- Lead Sponsor
- Center of Implantology, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Badajoz, Spain
- Brief Summary
For the management of peridontal and peri-implant conditions, free epithelial grafts have been proposed to provide a sufficient band of keratinized mucosa with the goal of enhancing confort during brushing and reducing the level of inflammation. Nevertheless, these are subjected to dimensional changes that may jeopardise the final outcome of providing sufficient keratinized mucosa to teeth and implants. Hence, this prospective study will aim at shedding light on the dimensional changes and the variables affecting these changes.
