About this trial

Thin gingival phenotype is one of the major causative factors of gingival recession type 1 which can result in hypersensitivity, discomfort, and compromised esthetics. This study assess the efficacy of increasing the gingival thickness from thin gingival phenotype to thick gingival phenotype in the treatment of patients suffering from gingival recession (RT1) and maintenance of results using either connective tissue graft or de-epithelized free gingival graft after non-surgical periodontal debridement compared to non-surgical periodontal debridement alone.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Gingival phenotype change

determination of the change in gingival thickness in mm using periodontal probe

Time frame
at baseline 3,6 and 12 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Keratinized tissue width

determination of Keratinized tissue width in mm using periodontal probe

Time frame
at baseline 3,6 and 12 months
2

Root coverage esthetic score (RES)

It is a scoring system to assess the level of gingival margin (GM),marginal tissue contour (MTC),Soft tissue texture, Mucogingival alignment (MGJ),Gingival color The score is 0,1 and 3 where 0 is the minimum and 3 is the maximum

Time frame
at baseline 3,6 and 12 months
