V-Reverse Suture Technique Compared to Traditional Anchored Sling Suture in Treating Multiple Gingival Recession
Modified Coronally Advanced Tunnel for Root Coverage With Sling Suture VS. V-Reverse Suture: A Slit-Mouth Pilot Study
The goal of this split-mouth pilot study is to study the effect of two different suturing techniques in root coverage using coronally advanced flap tunnel in multiple adjacent recession cases to see which technique will give superior outcomes in term of mean root coverage percentage, and root coverage esthetic score after 3-months.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does a suturing technique gives superior mean root coverage percentage over another?
- Does a suturing technique gives superior root coverage esthetic score?
Researcher will compare between V-reverse suturing technique and anchored sling suture to see which will result in superior mean root coverage percentage, and root coverage esthetic score after 3-months.
Participants will:
- Come in for a first visit to check your gum health, check eligibility and to be provided with scaling and polishing if needed.
- Come in for surgery and clinical measurements.
- Participant will be asked to complete post-operative questionnaire for 14 days.
- Re-evaluated after 1 week and suture removal at 2 weeks.
- Follow-up after 1 and 3 months.
調査の概要

詳細な説明
This split-moth pilot study is designed to assess the comparative effectiveness of V-reverse suturing technique(test) and anchored sling suturing technique (Control) in patients with bilateral multiple adjacent gingival recession. The primary aim of the study is to compare the test and control groups in terms of the obtained mean root coverage (mRC) and Root coverage esthetic score (RES) in 3 months. The secondary aims are to compare the two groups in terms of Complete root coverage (CRC), Keratinized tissue width (KTW), Gingival thickness (GT), Recession depth (REC), Probing depth (PD), and Patient-reported outcomes and satisfaction.
At surgery day (T0) baseline measurements and photographs will be taken for all participants and they will be treated with coronally advanced tunnel with autogenous connective tissue graft harvested from the palate for both sides. Each side will be randomly allocated for either V-reverse suturing technique (test) or anchored sling suturing technique (control) to advance the tunnel coronally. At the end of the surgery postoperative instructions will be delivered to all patients in a written and oral manner, in conjunction with a medical prescription, and post-operative questionnaire to fill for the next 14 days to capture patient-reported experience measures (PREMs).
Participants will be re-evaluated at 1 week and at 2 weeks sutures will be removed.
At (T1) 1 month after surgery the following parameters will be recorded : bleeding on probing (BOP), plaque index (PI), and recession depth.
At (T2) 3 month after surgery the following parameters will be recorded : bleeding on probing (BOP), plaque index (PI), recession depth, probing depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL), gingival thickness (GT), keratinized tissue width (KTW), Root coverage esthetic score (RES), mean root coverage% (mRC%), and complete root coverage(cRC "YES/NO")..
Visual analog scale from 0 - 10 (10- very dissatisfied, 0- very satisfied) at each visit after surgery was taken to assess patients overall satisfaction, and another visual analog scale from 0 - 10 (10- worst pain, 0- no pain) to assess patients perceptions of pain.
Photographs will be taken at each visit, all indices will be recorded by a calibrated examiner, and oral hygiene instructions will be reinforced at each visit.
The trial will be conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki (2013) and Good Clinical Practice (GCP) guidelines. Approval has been granted by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of Jordan University of Science and Technology. Written informed consent will be obtained from all participants prior to enrollment. Adverse events will be documented, monitored, and reported according to IRB requirements.

実験的：Test: V-Reverse Suture
Coronally advanced tunnel with V-reverse suture.
|
The V-reverse suturing technique can be a valid technique for improving graft and flap stability in the midfacial region which is likely the most crucial area that should be firm for achieving complete root coverage following the tunnel approach. The V-reverse suture starts in the palatal aspect, passing below the splinted contact point. Then the needle engages the graft and the flap (from inside to outside) ≈3 mm apical to the soft tissue margin in the mid-facial area. Then the needle passes to the palatal side under the contact point. Then the needle turns one round around the splinted composite (without pinching the soft tissue), and then the knot is performed and tightened over the composite. At the end, the sutures form a V-reverse shape |

アクティブコンパレータ：Control: Anchored Sling Suture
Coronally advanced tunnel with anchored sling suture

In addition to interrupted sutures, sling sutures have also regularly been applied as a conventional method of suturing to advance periodontal flaps over exposed root surfaces and connect the papillae to the interdental connective tissues, and composite stops where added to provide better stability.

It evaluates root coverage (60% weight, 0-6 points) and four soft tissue parameters: margin contour, tissue texture, junction alignment, and color (40% weight, 1 point each).
