Gingival recession

This trial compares two surgical techniques for treating receding gums, a condition where the gum tissue pulls away from the teeth, exposing the roots. One technique is the standard coronally advanced flap, and the other is a newer vertical variation. Both are performed along wit…

This study tests a surgical procedure to cover exposed tooth roots on the tongue side of lower teeth. Twenty adults with gum recession will receive the surgery and be followed for up to 24 months. The main goal is to see how much root coverage is achieved at 6 months, along with …

This study tests whether adding hyaluronic acid to a platelet-rich fibrin membrane improves the treatment of receding gums. Thirty adults with a specific type of gum recession will receive either the PRF membrane alone or with hyaluronic acid, alongside a surgical flap procedure.…

This trial tests whether adding a healing material made from the patient's own blood (Advanced Platelet-Rich Fibrin, or A-PRF) to standard gum surgery helps cover exposed tooth roots better than surgery alone. Eleven adults with gum recession will receive either the combined trea…

This study tests whether a patient's own stored tooth can be used as a graft to preserve jawbone after tooth extraction. About 21 adults needing at least two teeth pulled will receive this treatment. The goal is to maintain bone width and height for better future dental implant p…

This study tests whether personalized oral hygiene advice, delivered through an AI-powered mobile health app by trained volunteers, can improve gum health in older adults. Eighty-eight participants aged 60 and over from daycare centers in Hong Kong will receive bi-weekly advice b…

This study aimed to compare two surgical techniques for covering exposed tooth roots caused by gum recession, using a porcine (pig) collagen matrix as a graft material. The trial planned to enroll 20 non-smoking adults with multiple gum recessions. However, the study was withdraw…

This study tested two methods for preparing gum grafts to treat receding gums. One method uses a scalpel outside the mouth, the other uses a radiofrequency device inside the mouth. Forty-eight patients received one of these grafts along with a surgical gum lift. Researchers check…

This study tests a modified pinhole surgical technique for treating localized gum recession. It compares using a bi-layer collagen membrane versus a connective tissue graft to cover exposed tooth roots. The trial involves 18 healthy adults with gum recession and will measure chan…

This study compares two different incision methods for gum graft surgery to treat receding gums. Twenty-two adults with gum recession and thin gum tissue will receive a graft made from donated skin. The goal is to see which method covers more exposed tooth root and causes less pa…

This study tests two types of donated human tissue grafts for treating gum recession. Twenty adults who need a gum graft will receive either a standard graft or a new micro-surfaced version. Researchers will compare how well the gum covers the tooth root, how the site heals, and …

This study aimed to compare different surgical techniques for treating receding gums, including a flap procedure and a tunnel approach, with or without a platelet concentrate. It was designed for 100 adults with multiple gum recessions. However, the trial was withdrawn before enr…

This study tested two surgical techniques to fix receding gums on the lower front teeth. 26 adults with gum recession received either a modified laterally stretched technique or a tunneling method with a connective tissue graft. The goal was to see which approach better covers ex…

This study is checking how safe and effective a new membrane made from pig tissue is for dental surgery. It involves 50 adults who need gum tissue regeneration around teeth or implants. Researchers will monitor for complications and measure gum thickness and width over 24 months.

This small pilot study tests two different stitching techniques during gum surgery to cover exposed tooth roots caused by gum recession. Seven healthy adults with multiple areas of gum recession will receive both techniques in different parts of their mouth. The goal is to see wh…

This study tests whether a special nano calcium fluoride varnish, a diode laser, or both together can reduce tooth sensitivity. Thirty adults with sensitive teeth will receive one of the treatments and rate their pain on a scale. The goal is to see which approach provides the bes…

This study follows 100 people who already have short, 3D-printed dental implants in the back of the upper or lower jaw. Researchers measure bone loss and other dental health markers over three years to see how well these implants hold up. The goal is to learn whether these specia…

This study tests four different methods for removing the surface layer of gum tissue during dental grafting surgery. The methods include a surgical blade, a special drill (mucotome), a diamond bur, and a laser. Researchers will measure how much tissue remains, how long the proced…
