Inadequately Attached Gingiva
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical effects of combined application of combined application of a xenogeneic collagen matrix and the free gingival graft in augmentation of keratinized tissue around dental implant by single arm clinical trial, compared with historical control group 1:application of a xenogeneic collagen matrix,and historical control group 2:application of the free gingival graft.
Detailed description
The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical effects of combined application of a xenogeneic collagen matrix and the free gingival graft in augmentation of keratinized tissue around dental implant by single arm clinical trial, compared with historical control group 1:application of a xenogeneic collagen matrix,and historical control group 2:application of the free gingival graft. This study designed a single arm clinical trial. The included patients will all be treated with apical repositioned flap with a xenogeneic collagen matrix and the free gingival graft. The width of keratinized mucosa, thickness of keratinized mucosa, gingival index, probing depth will be measured before surgery and at 2, 6 months postoperatively.
Interventions
Harvest a strip free gingival graft from the palate, then place it above apically repositioned flap and fix xenogeneic collagen matrix to the recipient bed

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Aged \>=18 years and periodontally and systemically healthy; 2. Presence of at least one site with \<=2 mm of keratinized tissue; associated with a shallow vestibule in the edentulous region after implant surgery (no more than three consecutive implants); 3. Need of keratinized tissue augmentation for aesthetic purpose and/or functional reasons; 4. Full mouth probing depths \<=5mm; 5.

Exclusion criteria
1. Smoking; 2. Pregnant or lactating women; 3. Untreated periodontal disease; 4. Presence of systemic disorders (diabetes, heart disease, tumor or any other condition that could contraindicate periodontal surgery); 5. Use of medications (immunosuppressants, phenytoin, or anything else that might affect mucosal healing and repair); 6. Under radiotherapy; 7. Allergy to the collagen; 8. Previous mucogingival surgery in the area.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| change from baseline keratinized mucosa width at 2 and 6 months | baseline, at 2,6 months | measured from the mucogingival junction to the mucosa margin or the zenith of alveolar ridge at the mid-buccal aspect of each implant using a periodontal probe (UNC15) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| change from baseline keratinized mucosa thickness at 2 and 6 months | baseline, at 2,6 months | measured at the middle point of an apical-coronal direction at the mid-buccal aspect using an endodontic file with a rubber stop |
| change from baseline Gingival index at 2 and 6 months | baseline, at 2,6 months | assessed at four gingival sites of each implant (mesio-labial/buccal, mid-labial/buccal, disto-labial/buccal, and palatal/lingual) . Indicated by numbers, 0: normal gingiva; 1: slightly edematous gingiva that does not bleed on probing; 2: edematous gingiva that bleeds on probing; 3: gingiva that has a tendency to bleed spontaneously or ulcerate. |
| change from baseline probing depth at 2 and 6 months | baseline, at 2,6 months | measured at six sites of each implant (mesio-labial/buccal, mid-labial/buccal, disto-labial/buccal, mesio-palatal/lingual, mid-palatal/lingual, and disto-palatal/lingual) using a periodontal probe (UNC15) |
| Post-operative pain | at 1 week after surgery | evaluated using a visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 to 10 (0 = no pain and 10 = worst pain imaginable) |
| change from 2 months patient satisfaction at 6 months | at 2 and 6 months post operation | using a visual analog scale (VAS) ranging from 0 to 10 (0 = extremely dissatisfied and 10 = extremely satisfied) |
| dosage of postoperative analgesic drugs | at 1 week after surgery | dosage of postoperative analgesic drugs that patients take after surgery |
| operation time | during the surgery | measured from the start of the first incision to the end of the last suture |
| esthetic score | at 6 months post operation | assessed by judging on the colour, contour, and texture of the surgical sites |
| change from baseline depth of recession at 2 and 6 months | baseline, at 2,6 months | The distance from the implant margin to the gingival margin was measured with a periodontal probe |
| change from baseline width of recession at 2 and 6 months | baseline, at 2,6 months | The proximal and distal level of soft tissue retraction at the top of implant was measured by periodontal probe |
