Gingival Recession
Conditions
Brief summary
The present study is a human, prospective, single centre, single blind, comparative controlled randomized clinical trial for the treatment of Miller's Class I, II or combination of class I and II mandibular recession and comparing the clinical outcomes prior to and 6 months after treatment. The trial is in accordance to the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) criteria, 2010.
Detailed description
24 recession defects were selected in patients who were systemically and periodontally healthy, satisfying the determined inclusion criteria. Patients with at least two or more teeth having Miller's class I , II or combination of class I and II mandibular recession defects were included in the study. A detailed, thorough medical and dental history was obtained and each patient was subjected to comprehensive clinical and radiological examination. All patients were informed about the nature of the study, surgical procedure involved, potential benefits and risks associated with the surgical procedure and a written informed consent was obtained from all patients. The patients were assigned into two treatment groups (test and control). The test group was treated with recombinant human Platelet Derived Growth Factor-BB and Modified Coronally Advanced Tunnel +Connective Tissue Graft whereas the control group was treated by Modified Coronally Advanced Tunnel +Connective Tissue Graft alone.
Interventions
PROCEDUREroot coverage
recession coverage is treated with modified coronally advanced tunnel with connective tissue graft with recombinant human platelet derived growth factor- BB for Experimental: Test group and without recombinant human platelet derived growth factor- BB for Active Comparator: Control group

Masking description
Computer generated randomization sequence was obtained by the assistant. Allocation concealment was achieved using a sealed coded opaque envelope containing the treatment of the specific subject The sealed envelope containing treatment assignment was opened immediately prior to surgery to prevent surgeon bias
Intervention model description
The patients were assigned into two treatment groups (test and control). The test group was treated with recombinant human Platelet Derived Growth Factor-BB and Modified Coronally Advanced Tunnel +Connective Tissue Graft whereas the control group was treated by Modified Coronally Advanced Tunnel +Connective Tissue Graft alone.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| coverage esthetic score(RCES) | 6 months | The Aesthetic evaluation was performed according to the root coverage aesthetic score system (RES) Five Variables evaluated which are as follows: 1. Level of Gingival margin (GM) 2. Marginal Tissue Contour (MTC) 3. Soft Tissue Texture (STT) 4. Mucogingival Junction(MJ) alignment 5. Gingival Colour (GC) |
| 2. Gingival Recession Width (GRW) | 6 months | measured as the distance between the mesial gingival margin and distal gingival margin |
| Mean root coverage(MRC) | 6 months | (Baseline recession depth - 6 month recession depth/Baseline recession depth)\*100 |
| Complete root coverage(CRC) | 6 months | root coverage regarded as complete with gingival margin located at the level of Cemento Enamel Junction |
| Gingival recession depth (GRD) | 6 months | measured as the distance from the Cemento Enamel Junction to the gingival margin |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| clinical attachment level (CAL) | 6 months | measured as Gingival Recession Depth + Probing Depth |
| width of keratinized tissue (KTW) | 6 months | measured as the distance from the mucogingival junction to the gingival margin , with the mucogingival junction location determined using a visual method (Schiller's Potassium Iodide Solution). |
| probing pocket depth (PD) | 6 months | measured as the distance from the gingival margin to the base of gingival sulcus |
