Summary

Our study looks into how the thickness of the gum tissue affects the health of the bone around dental implants over ten years. We include 59 people and divide them into three groups based on their gum tissue thickness. Some have naturally thin gums, some have thin gums that were made thicker with a special procedure, and some already had thick gums. We try to find out if having thicker gums, whether naturally or through enhancement, can help keep the bone around dental implants healthy in the long run.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Thin Tissues

Patients with thin tissues received implants 10 years ago and are now followed up after 10 years.

PROCEDURE

Thick Tissues

Patients with thick tissues received implants 10 years ago and are now followed up after 10 years.

PROCEDURE

Surgically augmented thin tissues

Patients with thin tissues received soft tissue augmentation and implants 10 years ago and are now followed up after 10 years.
