U.S., Aug. 20 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07772414) titled 'Apical Flap Repositioning vs. Mucosa Excision With Free Gingival Grafts for Peri-Implant Keratinized Mucosa Augmentation' on Aug. 03.
Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn which surgical technique works better to increase the amount of firm gum tissue (called keratinized mucosa) around dental implants in adults.
The main question it aims to answer is:
-Does repositioning the gum flap upward with stitches lead to a greater gain in firm gum tissue width at 6 months compared to simply removing the extra gum tissue, when both techniques are combined with a free gum graft?
Researchers will compare two techniques u...
