A Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial to Compare Free Gingival Grafts and Connective Tissue Grafts Around Implants With Lack of Keratinized Mucosa

University of Alabama at Birmingham·interventional·Posted Nov 9, 2017·Updated Sep 22, 2021

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Free Gingival Graft (FGG) and Connective Tissue Graft followed by Laser Gingivoplasty for Dental Implants and Alveolar Mucosa. Completed, enrolled 14 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

This study will compare two commonly used soft tissue grafting techniques (free gingival graft, FGG vs. connective tissue graft, CTG) to augment the soft tissue around dental implants with a lack of keratinized mucosa. To investigators knowledge, these 2 types of grafts have not been compared for differences in clinical (amount of KM increase, tissue thickness increase and esthetics) and patient-centered outcomes (pain, swelling, change in daily activities) in a controlled study.
