NCT ID NCT07453147
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two ways of doing a gum graft to treat gum recession affecting several teeth. All 32 participants will get a modified tunnel procedure, but half will receive a single continuous graft and the other half a segmented graft. The goal is to see which method better covers exposed roots and improves gum health over 12 months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
connective tissue graft (gum graft)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a segmented graft works as well as or better than a continuous graft for covering exposed tooth roots, improving gum health and appearance.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 32 participants. Results may not apply to everyone, and the procedure carries typical surgical risks like infection or graft failure.
