Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The width and thickness of keratinized tissue. Timepoint: The width and thickness of attached gingiva at baseline and 8 weeks post-op. Method of measurement: Using a periodontal probe.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Post-operative pain and wound shrinkage. Timepoint: At the baseline and 8 weeks post-op. Method of measurement: A visual analog scale(VAS) questionnaire is used to evaluate the amount of pain after the operation, ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain).To assess the wound shrinkage, the amount of apical placement of the flap at the surgery is compared to the newly attached gingiva gained after 8 weeks.
