The Influence of Soft Tissue Phenotype Modification Following Free Gingival Grafting on the Treatment of Peri-implant Mucositis
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Non surgical therapy and Free gingival Grafting for Peri-implant Mucositis and Soft Tissue Inflammation. Completed, enrolled 43 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this randomized clinical study is to investigate the impact of soft tissue phenotype modification following free gingival grafting (FGG) in addition to the non-surgical mechanical therapy of peri-implant mucositis (PM) with keratinized mucosa width (KMW) \< 2 mm over a 6-month follow-up period. Therefore, the following questions related to the study are raised: • Does soft tissue modification following free gingival grafting around the implants with KMW \< 2 mm, in addition to non-surgical mechanical therapy of PM, affect the change in bleeding on probing and the rate of complete disease resolution? Patients who apply to the Department of Periodontology, Faculty of Dentistry, Gazi University, are systemically healthy, have implant-supported restorations installed at least one year prior to their enrollment, and are diagnosed with PM on these implants will be selected for the study. Patients with KMW \< 2 mm at the respective implant sites will be treated with non-surgical mechanical treatment combined with soft tissue augmentation with FGG or non-surgical mechanical treatment alone.

Timeline
Interventions
Non-surgical submarginal instrumentation using titanium curettes with saline irrigation will be done once in the treatment session.
In the PM-NS-FGG group, soft tissue augmentation using a free gingival graft will be performed.
