NCT07616960
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the combined bilaminar tunnel technique works to treat anatomically difficult gingival recessions. It will also explore whether anatomical factors are associated with root coverage outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the combined bilaminar tunnel technique improve root coverage outcomes in patients with anatomically difficult gingival recessions? Are specific anatomical factors associated with root coverage outcomes after the combined bilaminar tunnel technique? Participants will: Receive root coverage surgery using the combined bilaminar tunnel technique Visit the clinic for follow-up evaluations after surgery Receive clinical measurements to assess gingival recession and root coverage outcomes Receive radiographic evaluation to assess anatomical characteristics, if clinically indicated or available
NCT07554625
This randomized controlled clinical trial evaluated volumetric changes at recipient and donor sites following free gingival graft (FGG) surgery, comparing two different palatal donor regions. Forty systemically healthy non-smoking adults aged 20-40 years with Miller Class I gingival recession defects at the mandibular anterior teeth (teeth 31, 32, 41, and 42) were randomly allocated using a sealed envelope method into two groups based on the donor site: (1) the anterior palatal region (from the distal of the canine to the first molar), and (2) the posterior palatal/tuberosity region (between the first molar and the tuberosity). All grafts were harvested targeting a standardized size of 8x10 mm (80 mm²). Digital intraoral scans (3Shape TRIOS 5) were obtained preoperatively and at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. Volumetric changes at both recipient and donor sites were measured using STL-based superimposition in Exocad software. The aim was to compare time-dependent volumetric change patterns at both the recipient and donor sites between the two donor groups.
NCT03675334
Coronally advanced flap plus connective tissue graft (CTG) is the gold standard therapy for root coverage. The bioabsorbable porcine collagen matrix (CM) has been widely used in periodontal and mucogingival surgery as a substitute for CTG and has achieved similar results. The CM has the advantage of no need of a second surgical area and availability overcoming the limitations of donor site in autograft. The aim of this study is to investigate the use of Mucoderm® in root coverage procedures combined with extended coronally positioned flap (ECAF), test group (TG), in comparison to the connective tissue graft associated with the ECAF, control group (CG).
NCT06438094
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to evaluate the effect of non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) on the outcome of root coverage therapy. The main question it aims to answer is: In gingival recessions associated with NCCLs, characterized by an undetectable cemento-enamel junction (CEJ), reconstruction of the CEJ with a cervical composite restoration, prior to root coverage surgery by means of a coronally advanced flap combined with a connective tissue graft (CAF+CTG), provides similar clinical and patient-reported outcomes, as compared to the treatment of gingival recessions associated with NCCLs, characterized by a visible CEJ, with root coverage surgery only, by means of a CAF+CTG. In NCCLs where the CEJ is undetectable (B-type defect), the CEJ will be reconstructed before surgery with a cervical composite restoration mimicking the anatomic features of the contralateral, homologous tooth. CAF+CTG treatment will be performed in all cases. Participants will be assessed at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months to evaluate clinical, volumetric, and patient-centred outcomes.
NCT03162016
Limitation of donor site and significant postoperative morbidity are often described in connective tissue graft harvesting. We want to show if mucoderm used in tunnel technique to recover miller class I and II recessions defects could be an alternative to connective tissue graft.

NCT04959019
The purpose of this study is to determine how effective a 6-week exercise program is for improving memory compared to a no-intervention control group, investigate the brain changes that may be responsible for memory improvements, and determine if the memory benefits and brain changes are retained 6 weeks after completing the exercise intervention in people with Idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE).
NCT07403006
This study aims to evaluate whether the method of root surface preparation influences surgical outcomes. It will assess whether manual root instrumentation can be replaced by a less invasive erythritol air-polishing technique.
NCT07437417
Periodontal health and preservation of the dentition without tooth loss are important quality of life components and should be safeguarded in order to provide optimal function and esthetics. Optimal treatment of gingiva recessions is likely to allow for more efficient use of healthcare resources and reduced costs long-term. It is evident that the prevalence in gingival recession is high and its consequences on the aging population constitute an important healthcare issue that requires further attention. The standard therapy of gingival recession encompasses a coronally advanced flap or coronally advanced tunnel flap and a connective tissue graft from the palate. Harvesting of the palatal graft involves a second surgical site and increased morbidity for the patients.This project aims to compare the connective tissue graft against a novel volume stable collagen matrix. Patients will be treated according to standard protocols of the Department of Periodontology. In the test group patient will undergo tissue thickening with a collagen matrix and the modified coronally advanced tunnel technique. The control group will undergo the standard protocol using a connective tissue graft from the palate along with the modified coronally advanced tunnel technique. No study specific risks do exist.
NCT05851248
The goal of this clinical trial is to to describe and evaluate an approach, free mucogingival graft (FMG), in periodontal plastic surgery for root coverage (RC) in lower incisor gingival recessions (GR) with mucogingival conditions and deformities (MCD) that might negatively influence the outcomes of conventional RC procedures.
NCT07200258
This randomized clinical trial will compare two surgical methods for treating multiple adjacent gingival recessions (types RT1 and RT2): the Modified Coronally Advanced Tunnel (MCAT) and the Vestibular Incision Subperiosteal Tunnel Access (VISTA). Both methods will use connective tissue grafts (CTG), which are the best way to cover roots. The main objective is to use three-dimensional (3D) digital volumetric analysis to look at how the thickness of soft tissue has changed after six and 12 months. Secondary outcomes include root coverage, esthetic outcomes, gingival health parameters, hypersensitivity, patient satisfaction, and wound healing quality. There will be 44 volunteers, and they will be randomly assigned to one of the two surgical methods. Under the same settings, periodontal specialists in training will undertake the procedures at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. There will be follow-up evaluations at different times up to 12 months after the procedure. The results of this study will help determine whether remote incisions via the VISTA technique offer improved outcomes compared to the MCAT technique.

This randomized controlled clinical trial evaluated the effectiveness of butyl-cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive compared with conventional sutures for stabilization of free gingival grafts. Twenty-four patients with insufficient keratinized tissue were randomly assigned to either cyanoacrylate or suture stabilization following free gingival graft surgery. Clinical parameters, graft dimensional changes, patient-reported postoperative discomfort, and operative time were assessed over a 6-month follow-up period.
NCT04806620
The unhide® Project is a non-interventional, longitudinal research study designed to establish a secure data repository of demographic, health, and lifestyle information from individuals with brain inflammation and related neuroinflammatory conditions. Participants in the United States aged 2 years and older will provide self-reported health data, biometrics, and symptom diaries through the MyDataHelps™ app (branded as unhide® for this study). The goal is to create comprehensive longitudinal profiles to facilitate research into disease subtypes, causes, diagnostics, and potential treatments, as well as to identify potential participants for future optional studies. "Healthy" individuals without brain inflammation are also eligible to participate. The digital health research platform used in this study was originally developed and designed by Solve M.E and was called SolveTogether. The Brain Inflammation Collaborative (BIC) expanded upon Solve M.E.'s work to include related diagnoses, pediatric participants, enhance symptom tracking, and more. BIC and Solve M.E. combined Solve Together and unhide®, to create The unhide® Solve Together Unified Platform in 2025.

The intent is to determine the feasibility and the optimal design of a subsequent pivotal study in order to expand the indication for use for the RNS System as a treatment for patients with medically intractable LGS.
NCT03570333
The primary purpose of this protocol is to isolate, investigate and compare the regenerative and differentiation potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC's) in the gingival (gum) tissue harvested from two different locations from the roof of the mouth (palate), that is from the front part(premolar)and back part(molar). MSC's are known for their capacity to form different kinds of hard and soft tissue including bone, fibers for periodontal ligaments, cementum and dentin, thus this study can help in optimizing their clinical application and transplantation approaches in tissue regeneration.
