Newest Gingival Recession clinical trials
All recruiting trials (24)
-
Root coverage using different restorative materials in Class V lesions
This study tests whether using glass ionomer cement, resin composite, or no restoration before root coverage surgery helps people with gum recession and neck lesions
-
Volume-stable collagen matrix vs graft for multiple gingival recessions
This study tests whether a volume-stable collagen matrix can cover exposed roots as well as a traditional graft, in adults with multiple gingival recessions.
-
Gingival recession and its effect on oral health-related quality of life
This project will see how common gingival recession is and whether it affects oral health-related quality of life in adults aged 18–45 who visit a tertiary dental center in Haryana.
-
Comparing a new 3D tunneling technique with a modified coronally advanced tunnel plus connective tissue graft for treating multiple RT2 gingival recession.
This trial will try a new 3D tunneling surgical technique versus a modified coronally advanced tunnel with connective tissue graft to improve root coverage in adults who have multiple RT2 gingival recessions.
-
Using 3D dental imaging to lower gum recession during aligner treatment
This test tries to see if planning aligner treatment with 3D CBCT imaging instead of 2D images can reduce gum recession for adults undergoing dental arch expansion.
-
Gum recession in adults with and without prior orthodontic treatment
We will test which patient and tooth factors increase the chance of gum recession in adults who have or have not had orthodontic treatment.
-
Volume-stable collagen matrix to cover gum recession on teeth
This test checks whether a new volume-stable collagen matrix can replace a connective tissue graft from the palate to cover buccal gum recessions in adults.
-
Air-polishing versus manual root cleaning during gum recession surgery
We will test if using erythritol air-polishing instead of manual root instrumentation during gum recession surgery helps cover exposed roots in adults with multiple RT1/RT2 recessions.
-
Measuring how a gum graft heals
This project will take non-invasive scans, blood-flow readings, and saliva samples from people getting a gum graft to see how the graft heals over time.
-
Comparing two gum tunnel graft techniques (MCAT vs VISTA) to increase gum thickness
This trial will test whether the MCAT or VISTA tunnel surgery with connective tissue grafts better thickens gums and covers exposed roots in adults with multiple adjacent gingival recessions.
-
TCAF versus MTUN with soft tissue grafts for a single gum recession in the lower premolar area
This compares whether a tunneled coronally advanced flap (TCAF) or a modified tunnel (MTUN), each combined with a connective tissue graft, gives better root coverage for adults with a single gum recession in the lower premolar area.
-
Biofiller versus connective tissue graft to thicken lower front gums
This trial will test whether a new autologous gel called Biofiller or the standard connective tissue graft better thickens thin gums in adults with thin lower front teeth.
-
Using a collagen scaffold (Ossix VOLUMAX) with piezo-surgical decortication to improve orthodontic outcomes in adults with thin gums
This study tests whether adding a collagen scaffold (Ossix VOLUMAX) to minimally invasive piezo-surgical decortication helps adults with thin gingiva and lower front tooth crowding gain thicker gums, more bone, less recession, and faster orthodontic correction.
-
Microneedling with coronally advanced flap for thin gingival tissue in RT1 recession
This study tests whether adding microneedling before a coronally advanced flap can provide similar root coverage to the standard flap with connective tissue graft in people with thin gingival tissue and RT1 gingival recession.
-
Evaluating ways to protect the palate after gum graft removal
This study is testing different ways to protect the mouth after gum surgery to see which method helps with healing and pain for patients.
-
Treatment for gum recession using a minimally invasive technique
This study is testing a new way to treat gum recession using a special technique and a growth factor injection to see if it works better than the standard treatment.
-
Modified VISTA gum-covering using albumin-PRF versus connective tissue graft for multiple Miller Class III gum recessions
This test tries to see whether a modified VISTA gum-covering technique using albumin-PRF works as well as the standard connective tissue graft for adults with multiple Miller Class III (RT2) gum recessions who have good oral hygiene.
-
Using free mucogingival grafts to treat gum recession in lower incisors
This study is testing if a new type of gum graft can help people with receding gums around their lower front teeth feel better and look better.
-
Comparing two techniques for harvesting gum tissue for oral surgery
This study is testing two different methods for taking gum tissue during surgery to see which one helps patients heal better and feel less discomfort.
-
Treatment options for gingival recession using different surgical techniques
This study is testing two different surgical methods for treating gum recession in patients with thin gums to see which one works better than just regular non-surgical treatment.
-
Comparing two surgical techniques for treating gum recession
This study is testing two different surgical methods for treating gum recession to see which one works better for covering exposed tooth roots.
-
Using patient's own blood to treat gum recession
This study is testing whether using a patient's own blood or tissue can help treat gum recession for those looking to improve their smile or reduce sensitivity.
-
Effect of Free Gingival Graft on Gum Health
This study is testing if a gum surgery using free gingival grafts can help improve gum health for people with gum recession in the front of their lower jaw.
-
Improving gum tissue around teeth and implants using two grafting techniques
This study is testing two different methods to improve gum tissue around teeth and implants to see which one works better for patients.

What phases are they in?
Phase 2/3: 1. Trials with no phase listed are usually device, behavioural or observational studies.
How do I join one?
Open a study, check the "Is this trial a fit for you?" section, then contact the study team listed on the page. They will ask a few screening questions. Asking is free and does not commit you to anything. Talk it over with your doctor first.
