Participant Flow

Patients in the School of Dentistry Periodontology Clinic in need of grafting treatment will be told about the study and if interested in participation will be scheduled for a screening visit for study entry by periodontal residents and faculty members. Randomization was performed by site in the mouth (dental implant site) to receive either CTG intervention, ADM or control. Total CTG sites=13, total ADM sites=16 and control sites=12.

Unit of analysis: dental implant site
