Clinical and Radiographic Effect, Implant, Thick-gingiva, Thin Gingiva
Conditions
Brief summary
To evaluate a cross-shaped incision technique to thick-gingiva and thin-gingiva patients treated with implant-supported fixed prosthesis.
Detailed description
Objective: To evaluate a cross-shaped incision technique to thick-gingiva and thin-gingiva patients treated with implant-supported fixed prosthesis. Methods and Materials: 55 patients received cross-shaped incision were assigned into thick-gingiva group (29 cases) and thin-gingiva group (26 cases). Follow-up examination was carried out 3 and 12 months after final restoration. Clinical and radiographic evaluation including gingival papilla height, modified plaque index, modified sulcus bleeding index, periodontal depth, and crestal marginal bone level were utilized.
Interventions
DIAGNOSTIC_TESTThe biotype of gingival
The biotype of gingival was also determined by periodontal probe.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| papilla height | Between June 2018 and June 2020. | Presence/absence of papilla height was assessed visually |
| Modified Plaque Index (mPI) | Between June 2018 and June 2020. | plaque accumulation around the marginal peri-implant tissue was assessed |
| Modified Sulcus Bleeding Index | Between June 2018 and June 2020. | the bleeding tendency of the marginal peri-implant tissue was evaluated |
| Probing Depth (PD, in millimeters) | Between June 2018 and June 2020. | PD was assessed at the mid-buccal, mid-oral, mesial and distal aspects of each implant with a standard periodontal probe, and final value was determined by the average of four aspects |
| Gingival margin level | Between June 2018 and June 2020. | Gingival margin level was assessed by calculating the vertical distance between the most apical point of gingival margin at the buccal aspect of the crown and line connecting the peak of the adjacent mesial and distal natural teeth |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| first bone-implant contact (fBIC) and implant shoulder (IS) | Between June 2018 and June 2020. | the landmarks of first bone-implant contact (fBIC) and implant shoulder (IS) were used for measurements. fBIC-IS was defined as the vertical distance the first bone-implant contact to implant shoulder, and the distance was assessed at the mesial and distal aspect of implant, respectively. When the marginal crestal bone was located coronal to the IS, a positive (+) value was given, where a negative (-) value when located apically to the IS, the value was deemed as zero when IS and fBIC coincided. |
