Keratinized mucosa graft to support treatment of peri-implantitis

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

Patients with peri-implantitis and inadequate keratinized mucosa receive standard non-surgical therapy, then one month later are assigned either to receive a free gingival graft (FGG) to increase keratinized mucosa or to continue supportive periodontal care and regular follow-up. The FGG is harvested from the palate and placed to augment width and thickness of peri-implant keratinized mucosa. Clinical and radiographic outcomes including probing depth and signs of inflammation are measured, with the primary endpoint being change in probing depth at 12 months. Eligible participants are systemically healthy non-smokers with mid‑buccal keratinized mucosa under 2 mm, and those taking medications that impair healing or who are pregnant or lactating are excluded.
