An interventional study of mucogingigval surgery in Modified Free Gingival Graft , Connective Tissue Graft, sponsored by Universidad de Especialidades Espiritu Santo. Recruiting at 1 site in Ecuador. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 64 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-10-29.

Gingival recessions can be defined as the exposure of the root surface after an apical migration of the gingival margin in relation to the cemento-enamel junction. Gingival recessions affect both younger and older populations. Various surveys revealed that 88% of people ≥65 years of age and 50% of people between 18 and 64 years of age have ≥1 site with gingival recession. Gingival recessions can occur due to anatomical, pathological factors or trauma and will result in a loss of attachment.
426 studies on the registry are indexed under Gingival Recession; 106 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 30 is close to the median of 30 across 390 interventional studies indexed under Gingival Recession.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Procedure: mucogingigval surgery
Procedure: mucogingigval surgery
Is a form of mucogingival surgery that attempts to improve the height of the keratinized tissue (KT), as well as augment the thickness of the gingival phenotype to facilitate meticulous oral hygiene.
To evaluate the long-term efficacy of the modified free gingival graft technique on root coverage.
This technique is a modified version of the Free gingival graft, which is a surgery that attempts to improve the height of the keratinized tissue, as well as augment the thickness of the gingival phenotype. This modified version is based on a connective pedicle flap is flipped from its apical origin to cover the exposed root surface prior to the positioning of the Free gingival Graft. The rationale behind the approach is to improve the revascularization of the graft.
Time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 months, evaluating at 7 days, 14 days, at the first month and after that every 3 months.

Started Sep 2024 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Dec 2024, 3 months after the start.
Of 233 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Gingival Recession, half reached primary completion within 19 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 11 and three quarters within 30. This study's planned 3 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 235 studies reached it within 19 months; a quarter within 11 and three quarters within 30.
