Influence of Flap Position Following FibReORS

NCT05140681 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 16

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There is lack of data in literature on keratinized tissue increase after FibReORS in relation to primary flap position. This study has been designed as a split-mouth randomized trial to assess the influence of flap position after FibReORS. 16 patients were recruited and treated. The placement of the flap 2 mm apically to the bone crest instead at the bone level would be a viable approach to increase KT width without delaying wound healing. The extent of post-operative discomfort/pain was not influenced by primary flap position.

Conditions

  • Periodontitis
  • Periodontal Diseases

Interventions

PROCEDURE

FibReORS with apically positioned flap (apical position)

Periodontal surgery including flap elevation. root surface scaling, bone remodeling and suture of the flap at 2 mm subcrestal position

PROCEDURE

FibReORS with apically positioned flap (crestal position)

Periodontal surgery including flap elevation. root surface scaling, bone remodeling and suture of the flap at either a crestal position
