Official title
Porcine Collagen Matrix With and Without Enamel Matrix Derivative for the Treatment of Gingival Recession Defects
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this prospective, double-blinded, randomized, split-mouth study is to compare the effectiveness of a porcine collagen matrix (CM) and coronally advanced flap (CAF) with or without the addition of enamel matrix derivative (EMD) in the treatment of Miller Class I, II, or predictable class III recession defects. One defect will receive CM + CAF + EMD (Experimental), while the other will receive CM + CAF (Control) alone. The treatment of 60 similarly sized Miller class I, II, or predictable class III recession defects on single-rooted teeth in 30 subjects using CM + CAF + EMD or CM + CAF alone will be evaluated. The subjects will be in good health, non-smokers, periodontally healthy with good oral hygiene and have no contraindications to periodontal surgery. Paired, similar sized defects on single-rooted teeth will be in the same subject and measure within 2mm of each other. One defect will be randomly assigned as the test group using CM + CAF + EMD, and the other as the control group using only CM + CAF. Clinical measurements will be made using a UNC-15 periodontal probe by calibrated, board certified periodontists and will include: probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), vertical recession (RD), and width of keratinized tissue (KT). Percent root coverage (%RC) will be calculated. The measurements will be used to evaluate surgical outcome. Surgical outcome will also be assessed using stone models. All measurements will be taken at baseline (on the day of the surgery) and 3 and 6 months post-surgery for comparison.
