Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate a star-shaped incision technique to thick-gingiva and thingingiva patients treated with implant-supported fixed prosthesis. The star-shaped incision would be an effective and simple method to reconstruct gingival papillae and avoid the gingival recession in thick-gingiva patients treated with implant-supported fixed prosthesis, and it is worthy of clinical extend.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Objective: To evaluate a star-shaped incision technique to thick-gingiva and thin-gingiva patients treated with implant-supported fixed prosthesis. Methods and Materials: 24 patients received cross-shaped incision were assigned into thick-gingiva group (16 cases) and thin-gingiva group (8 cases). Follow-up examination was carried out 3 and 12 months after final restoration. Clinical and radiographic evaluation including gingival papilla height, modified plaque index, modified sulcus bleeding index, periodontal depth, and crestal marginal bone level were utilized.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

thick-gingiva group

After the insertion of the probe into the facial aspect of the sulcus through the gingival margin, the simple visual method is based on the transparency of the periodontal probe through the gingival margin while probing the buccal sulcus at the midfacial aspect of the tooth. When the outline of the underlying periodontal probe can't be seen through the gingival, the gingival phenotype is considered thick.

No interventions assigned to this group

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Good general health, no chronic systemic diseases.
2. All subjects included in this study needed to have one missing premolar or molar teeth with adjacent natural teeth.
3. All subjects included in this study had been treated with one bone-level implant insertion in the premolar or molar region. The patients had insufficient gingival papilla height (referred to contralateral natural tooth which also had insufficient gingival papilla height) and at least 2 mm of keratinized tissue width around the implant.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Active periodontal infections.
2. Heavy smoking (\> 10 cigarettes per day).
