What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
recession depth
is measured from CEJ to the gingival margin in millimeters.
Measured: changes in millimeters from base line up to 6 months
thickness of keratinized gingiva
thickness of the keratinized gingiva in the faciolingual direction (gingival biotype)
Measured: changes in biotype in millimeters from base line to follow up after 6 months
Secondary outcomes (4)
Recession Width
the widest point from the mesial gingival margin to the distal gingival margin in millimeters
Measured: changes in millimeters from base line to follow up after 6 months
the height of keratinized gingiva
the distance from the mucogingival junction to the gingival margin
Measured: changes in millimeters from base line up to 6 months
percentage of root coverage
it is the [pre-operative gingival recession depth - post-operative recession depth]/ [preoperative recession depth] * 100%
Measured: changes in percentile from base line up to 6 months
Probing pocket depth
the distance from the gingival margin to base of pocket.
Measured: changes in millimeters from base line up to 6 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing sticky bone with coronally advanced flap and coronally advanced flap in people with Gingival Recession, Localized, run by Minia University at 1 site in Egypt.
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 5 inclusion and 7 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 30 Jun 2026. 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 Egypt. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
recession depth (time frame: changes in millimeters from base line up to 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06871475, which also lists 10 linked publications.
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 30 Jun 2026.
