NCT ID NCT06940050
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This study compares two surgical techniques (CAF and TCAF) for covering receding gums in the lower front teeth. About 34 adults with at least two gum recessions will be randomly assigned to one method. Both involve taking a small tissue graft from the roof of the mouth. The goal is to see which technique better covers exposed roots, reduces tooth sensitivity, and improves appearance over up to 10 years.
