Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 8 to 70 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • At least two non-adjacent teeth in contralateral quadrants of the same jaw with < 2mm of KT that requires soft tissue grafting (1-4 teeth may be treated). In case of adjacent teeth requiring grafting, only one tooth at each site will act as test or control tooth, but all teeth will get the same treatment). The number of teeth treated must be the same on the test and control sites.
  • Root coverage is not desired at the time of grafting.
  • Females of childbearing potential must have a documented negative urine pregnancy test.
  • Read, understood and signed an institutional review board (IRB) approved Informed Consent Form (ICF).
  • Able and willing to follow study procedures and instructions.
  • Multi-rooted teeth may be treated but will not be included as study teeth

Who cannot join

  • Vestibule depth of less than 7mm from base of recession, and/or teeth with Miller Grade 2 or higher mobility.
  • Any systemic conditions (i.e., diabetes mellitus, cancer, HIV, bone metabolic diseases) that could compromise wound healing and/ or preclude periodontal surgery; or who are currently receiving or have received within two months prior to study entry, systemic corticosteroids, immunosuppressive agents, radiation therapy, and/or chemotherapy which could compromise wound healing and preclude periodontal surgery.
  • Presence of acute infectious lesions in the areas intended for surgery.
  • History of any tobacco use within the last six months.
  • Taking intramuscular or intravenous bisphosphonates.
  • Known hypersensitivity to collagen products, and/or allergy to iodine or shellfish.
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Participating in other clinical studies involving therapeutic intervention (either medical or dental).
  • Previously undergone a gingival grafting procedure on the test or control teeth or the teeth adjacent to the study site.
  • Female subjects who are pregnant or lactating, or who intend to become pregnant during the study duration following entrance into the study.
  • Subjects, who in the opinion of the investigator, for any reason other than those listed above, will not be able to complete the study per protocol.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trial to Evaluate a Xenogeneic Collagen Matrix as an Alternative to Free Gingival Grafting for Oral Soft Tissue Augmentation

A split-mouth study comparing soft tissue augmentation results using free gingival graft (FGG) versus xenogeneic collagen matrix (CM) for the generation of keratinized tissue (KT) around teeth with insufficient (< 2mm) KT.

Read the detailed description

A single-blind, randomized, controlled, split-mouth study of 30 subjects with insufficient zones of KT (< 2mm). The study utilized a within subject treatment comparison design to establish non-inferiority of the test (CM) versus control (FGG) therapy. The primary efficacy endpoint was KT width at 6-months. Secondary endpoints included traditional periodontal measures, such as clinical attachment, recession and bleeding on probing. Patient reported pain, discomfort and esthetic satisfaction were also recorded. Biopsies were obtained at 6-months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Xenogeneic Collagen Matrix and Free Gingival Graft in people with Gingival Diseases, run by Perio Health Professionals, PLLC.

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 6 inclusion and 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 May 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Keratinized Tissue Width (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01952301, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Jun 2014.
