Treatment and study plan

Free gingival graft

Procedure

1.5-2 x 5 x 10 mm size epithelialized graft harvested from the palate is stabilized in the mandibular anterior single-tooth recession region

cyanoacrylate

Procedure

N-Butyl-Cyanoacryle is applied to stabilize the graft to the recipient bed and to coat the donor site wound

Suture

Procedure

The graft is stabilized with 6/0 polyvinylidene fluoride suture to the recipient bed

Primary outcomes

  1. Re-epithelization

    Time frame: one week after the surgery

    Donor site re-epithelization: hydrogen-peroxide is applied to the donor area with the help of an injector, and it is recorded as complete when no foaming occurs

  2. Re-epithelization

    Time frame: two weeks after the surgery

    Donor site re-epithelization: hydrogen-peroxide is applied to the donor area with the help of an injector, and it is recorded as complete when no foaming occurs

  3. Re-epithelization

    Time frame: three weeks after the surgery

    Donor site re-epithelization: hydrogen-peroxide is applied to the donor area with the help of an injector, and it is recorded as complete when no foaming occurs

  4. Post-operative pain

    Time frame: 1st week

    Visual analogue scale (VAS) (0-10), self-reported outcome 0 - no pain (min.) 10 - unbearable (max.)

  5. Post-operative pain

    Time frame: 2nd week

    Visual analogue scale (VAS) (0-10), self-reported outcome 0 - no pain (min.) 10 - unbearable (max.)

  6. Post-operative pain

    Time frame: 3rd week

    Visual analogue scale (VAS) (0-10), self-reported outcome 0 - no pain (min.) 10 - unbearable (max.)

  7. Post-operative pain

    Time frame: 4th week

    Visual analogue scale (VAS) (0-10), self-reported outcome 0 - no pain (min.) 10 - unbearable (max.)

  8. Oral health impact profile (OHIP-14)

    Time frame: Baseline

    The patients are asked to fill provided OHIP-14 forms Questionnaire about satisfaction related to oral health, scored as 0-4 (never - always) 14 questions in total 0 (min.) - 56 (max.) Lower scores represent higher oral health related life quality

  9. Oral health impact profile (OHIP-14)

    Time frame: 3rd day

    The patients are asked to fill provided OHIP-14 forms Questionnaire about satisfaction related to oral health, scored as 0-4 (never - always) 14 questions in total 0 (min.) - 56 (max.) Lower scores represent higher oral health related life quality

  10. Oral health impact profile (OHIP-14)

    Time frame: 1st week

    The patients are asked to fill provided OHIP-14 forms Questionnaire about satisfaction related to oral health, scored as 0-4 (never - always) 14 questions in total 0 (min.) - 56 (max.) Lower scores represent higher oral health related life quality

  11. Oral health impact profile (OHIP-14)

    Time frame: 1st month

    The patients are asked to fill provided OHIP-14 forms Questionnaire about satisfaction related to oral health, scored as 0-4 (never - always) 14 questions in total 0 (min.) - 56 (max.) Lower scores represent higher oral health related life quality

  12. Graft dimensions

    Time frame: 1st month

    Mesio-distal (horizontal) and apico-coronal (vertical) width of the graft is measured with a periodontal probe, rounding to the nearest mm

  13. Graft dimensions

    Time frame: 3rd month

    Mesio-distal (horizontal) and apico-coronal (vertical) width of the graft is measured with a periodontal probe, rounding to the nearest mm

  14. Graft dimensions

    Time frame: 6th month

    Mesio-distal (horizontal) and apico-coronal (vertical) width of the graft is measured with a periodontal probe, rounding to the nearest mm

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mucosal thickness

    Time frame: In the beginning of the surgery (baseline)

    15 endodontic reamer is inserted to the palatal mucosa 5 mm apical of the gingival margin of the second premolar; under local anesthesia

  2. Paresthesia / hyperesthesia in the donor site

    Time frame: 1st month

    The patient marks the visual analogue scale (0-10) after rubbing the donor site with a periodontal probe (to give a reference, symmetrical area is rubbed first) 0 - Paresthesia / hyperesthesia, 10 - no sensation difference with the reference area

  3. Color harmony

    Time frame: 1st week

    Color harmony between the graft and the neighboring keratinized tissue at the recipient site, examiner gives a score ranging 0-10 0 - completely different tone/color of the graft; 10 - no detectible tone difference

  4. Color harmony

    Time frame: 2nd week

    Color harmony between the graft and the neighboring keratinized tissue at the recipient site, examiner gives a score ranging 0-10 0 - completely different tone/color of the graft; 10 - no detectible tone difference

  5. Color harmony

    Time frame: 1st month

    Color harmony between the graft and the neighboring keratinized tissue at the recipient site, examiner gives a score ranging 0-10 0 - completely different tone/color of the graft; 10 - no detectible tone difference

  6. Color harmony

    Time frame: 3rd month

    Color harmony between the graft and the neighboring keratinized tissue at the recipient site, examiner gives a score ranging 0-10 0 - completely different tone/color of the graft; 10 - no detectible tone difference

  7. Color harmony

    Time frame: 6th month

    Color harmony between the graft and the neighboring keratinized tissue at the recipient site, examiner gives a score ranging 0-10 0 - completely different tone/color of the graft; 10 - no detectible tone difference
