What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • coronally partial thickness flap plus connective tissueProcedure or surgery

    Also called subepithelial connective tissue graft, coronally positioned flap

    The design of the flap will be performed according to the technique described by de Sanctis and Zucchelli 2007.

  • coronally mucosal thickness flapProcedure or surgery

    Also called superficial-layer split-tihickness flap

    The design of the flap will be performed according to the technique described by Greenwell H, Vance G, Munninger B and Johnston H.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Assess percentage of total root coverage between two subepithelial conective tissue graft technique for covering Class I and II Miller recessions patients attending at dental clinics of "Universidad El Bosque"

    Measured: one month (plus or minus 2 days), three months (plus or minus 3 days) and six months (plus or minus 5 days)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Assess the proportion of root coverage

    Measured: one month (plus or minus 2 days), Three months (plus or minus 3 days) and six month (plus or minus 5 days)

  2. Clinical attachment level, width of keratinized tissue and the position of the mucogingival junction following root coverage procedures

    Measured: one month (plus or minus 2 days), three months (plus or minus 3 days) and six months (plus or minus 5 days)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing coronally partial thickness flap plus connective tissue and coronally mucosal thickness flap in people with Gingival Recession and Periodontal Atrophy, run by Universidad El Bosque, Bogotá at 1 site in Colombia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Colombia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assess percentage of total root coverage between two subepithelial conective tissue graft technique for covering Class I and II Miller recessions patients attending at dental clinics of "Universidad El Bosque" (time frame: one month (plus or minus 2 days), three months (plus or minus 3 days) and six months (plus or minus 5 days)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Mar 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
