Augmentation of Keratinized Tissue Around Dental Implant With a Xenogeneic Collagen Matrix and the Free Gingival Graft

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Inadequately Attached Gingiva
Interventions
Procedure: apically repositioned flap+ xenogeneic collagen matrix +free gingival graft
Registration Number
NCT05273476
Lead Sponsor
The Dental Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical effects of combined application of combined application of a xenogeneic collagen matrix and the free gingival graft in augmentation of keratinized tissue around dental implant by single arm clinical trial, compared with historical control group 1:application of a xenogeneic collagen matrix,and historical control group 2:application of the free gingival graft.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical effects of combined application of a xenogeneic collagen matrix and the free gingival graft in augmentation of keratinized tissue around dental implant by single arm clinical trial, compared with historical control group 1:application of a xenogeneic collagen matrix,and historical control group 2:application of the free gingival graft. This study designed a single arm clinical trial. The included patients will all be treated with apical repositioned flap with a xenogeneic collagen matrix and the free gingival graft. The width of keratinized mucosa, thickness of keratinized mucosa, gingival index, probing depth will be measured before surgery and at 2, 6 months postoperatively.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
change from baseline keratinized mucosa width at 2 and 6 monthsbaseline, at 2,6 months

measured from the mucogingival junction to the mucosa margin or the zenith of alveolar ridge at the mid-buccal aspect of each implant using a periodontal probe (UNC15)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
change from 2 months patient satisfaction at 6 monthsat 2 and 6 months post operation

using a visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 to 10 (0 = extremely dissatisfied and 10 = extremely satisfied)

change from baseline keratinized mucosa thickness at 2 and 6 monthsbaseline, at 2,6 months

measured at the middle point of an apical-coronal direction at the mid-buccal aspect using an endodontic file with a rubber stop

Post-operative painat 1 week after surgery

evaluated using a visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 to 10 (0 = no pain and 10 = worst pain imaginable)

change from baseline Gingival index at 2 and 6 monthsbaseline, at 2,6 months

assessed at four gingival sites of each implant (mesio-labial/buccal, mid-labial/buccal, disto-labial/buccal, and palatal/lingual) . Indicated by numbers, 0: normal gingiva; 1: slightly edematous gingiva that does not bleed on probing; 2: edematous gingiva that bleeds on probing; 3: gingiva that has a tendency to bleed spontaneously or ulcerate.

change from baseline probing depth at 2 and 6 monthsbaseline, at 2,6 months

measured at six sites of each implant (mesio-labial/buccal, mid-labial/buccal, disto-labial/buccal, mesio-palatal/lingual, mid-palatal/lingual, and disto-palatal/lingual) using a periodontal probe (UNC15)

dosage of postoperative analgesic drugsat 1 week after surgery

dosage of postoperative analgesic drugs that patients take after surgery

operation timeduring the surgery

measured from the start of the first incision to the end of the last suture

esthetic scoreat 6 months post operation

assessed by judging on the colour, contour, and texture of the surgical sites

change from baseline depth of recession at 2 and 6 monthsbaseline, at 2,6 months

The distance from the implant margin to the gingival margin was measured with a periodontal probe

change from baseline width of recession at 2 and 6 monthsbaseline, at 2,6 months

The proximal and distal level of soft tissue retraction at the top of implant was measured by periodontal probe
