The aim of this, randomized clinical trial is to determine the clinical efficacy of fascia lata allograft in terms of peri-implant mucosal augmentation, as compared to autologous sub epithelial connective tissue graft, clinically and histologically in human adults .

Detailed description

The aim of this, randomized clinical trial is to determine the clinical efficacy of fascia lata allograft in terms of peri-implant mucosal augmentation, as compared to autologous sub epithelial connective tissue graft, clinically and histologically in human adults . The hypothesis of the study is that a similar gain in peri implant mucosal thicknesses will be obtained in sites treated by either a sub epithelial connective tissue graft or a newly developed fascia lata allograft in clinically and histologically in human. The objective of this study will be to evaluate the efficacy of the peri-implant mucosal thickness enhancement following either subepithelial connective tissue grafts or human Fascia Lata Allograft placed simultaneously with dental implant placement. Sixteen sites that are indicated for peri-implant mucosal augmentation at the time of implant placement will be selected. Participants will be randomized to the control (simultaneous SCTGs) or test (simultaneous FLA) group.

Interventions

PROCEDURESoft Tissue Enhancement around dental implant

Sixteen sites that are indicated for peri-implant mucosal augmentation at the time of implant placement will be selected. Sixteen sites that were met the subsequent inclusion criteria were eligible to contribute in our study were classified randomly by the sealed envelope technique into two treatment groups, 8 sites in each group. Group I (Control Group): Autogenous SCTGs harvested from the palate +dental implants \*. Group II (Experimental Group): FLA \*\*+dental implants. The allocation was withheld from the surgeon (M.H.) until just before the surgical appointment. The clinical examiner (M.S.) was masked to the treatment group for the extent of the study.Three months after implantation, the sites were located, and the thickness of the mucosa will be evaluated using the customized stent. The operculectomy will be performed following the method of Flatebo et al.,22 collecting biopsy specimens of almost constant quality and evaluating clinical thickness without mucosal distortions

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Peri-Implant Mucosal ThicknessMeasure changes in mucosal thickness around dental implant at base line and after 6 months.The primary outcome of interest will be to measure changes (in mm) in horizontal PMT on the buccal aspect of the edentulous alveolar ridge from baseline (implant placement and grafting) to (4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks) of post-surgical healing.
