GINGIVAL RECESSION

This study tested two different materials used during a common gum surgery to treat receding gums. Fifty patients with isolated gum recession had surgery where their gum was repositioned and covered with either a platelet-rich fibrin membrane (made from their own blood) or a chor…

This study compared two minimally invasive gum surgery techniques—the pinhole technique and the tunnel technique—to see which works better for covering exposed tooth roots caused by receding gums. Each of the 21 participants had both procedures done on different sides of their mo…

This study compared two non-surgical dental cleaning methods for treating early-stage gum recession. It tested whether a gentler, more precise cleaning technique (MINST) helps gums heal and cover exposed tooth roots better than standard cleaning. The trial involved 54 healthy adu…

This study tested if a special surgical glue works as well as traditional stitches to hold gum tissue grafts in place. It involved 24 adults who needed a gum graft to fix thin or receding gums. Researchers compared how well the grafts healed, how much pain patients felt, and how …

This study tested whether adding a hyaluronic acid gel to a standard gum surgery could improve healing and patient comfort for receding gums. Twenty adults with receding gums on both sides of their upper jaw had the surgery, with the gel used on one side and a saline rinse on the…

This study tested a special pre-placed stitch in the roof of the mouth to see if it reduces bleeding and pain during a common gum graft surgery. It involved 32 patients and measured blood loss during the procedure, pain levels after surgery, and patient satisfaction. The goal was…

This study looked at how a patient's anxiety before gum graft surgery might affect their pain and quality of life during recovery. Researchers followed 36 patients for one month after their surgery, tracking their pain levels and asking about their daily life impact. The goal was…

This study aimed to learn more about special repair cells found in gum tissue. Researchers collected small gum samples from seven patients during routine dental graft surgery to compare cells from the front and back of the roof of the mouth. The goal was to understand which cells…
