Free Soft Tissue Grafts FSTG) Using Autograft Palatal Donor Tissue vs. Xenograft Collagen Matrix (Zderm™)

Free Soft Tissue Grafts (FSTG) Using Autograft Palatal Donor Tissue vs. Xenograft Collagen Soft Tissue Matrix From Porcine Achilles Tendon (Zderm™)

Participant in this study are asked to participate because they have teeth or dental implants that were identified as having very little gum tissue and would benefit from gum tissue graft surgery. This study has 2 groups that differ only in the material that will be used at the graft site:

  • Gum tissue taken from the patient's own palate (standard of care group)
  • Commercially available collagen matrix derived from porcine (pig) Achilles tendon (FDA-approved for the surgery done in this study).

Both materials have been in use in dental practices for many years, but no studies have directly compared the outcomes between palatal tissue and the porcine collagen matrix we will use in this study.

Participants will be randomized into one of the 2 groups using sealed envelopes (the process is like flipping a coin). All the study visits will take place during regular dental appointments that would be scheduled even if not participating in this research.

詳細な説明

The investigators are examining the amount of gingiva gained when using 2 different types of donor tissue to do the graft surgery: either gum tissue from the patient's palate (standard of care) or commercially available tissue called a "collagen matrix" that comes from an animal source (the Achilles tendon of pigs). Palatal tissue has been used for over 70 years for this purpose, while animal sources have been used for about 15 years. So far, no studies have been done to see if there are any differences in the amount of new gum tissue we see when we use the palatal tissue approach versus the animal tissue approach. The purpose of this study is to compare the 2 approaches during a period of 6 months after graft surgery to determine if the change in gingiva is similar or different between the 2 approaches.

Teeth are surrounded by soft tissue called gingiva (gums). Sometimes, the amount of gingiva is very small, which can lead to problems such as receding gums, pain on toothbrushing/flossing, and an increased risk for gum diseases. In such instances, dentists commonly perform surgery procedures to increase the amount of gum tissue around teeth or dental implants. "Gum grafting" involves taking a small piece of tissue from one location (called the donor site and donor tissue) and transplanting it to the area where the amount of gingiva is inadequate (called the recipient site because this location will receive the donor tissue).

説明

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female patient aged 18 to 89
  • One or more teeth/dental implants, excluding 3rd molars, that have been identified by dental faculty as requiring augmentation of KT
  • A FSTG is indicated and treatment planned to augment the KT. Coverage of exposed root surfaces is not indicated or intended. Patients needing root coverage surgical procedures re not eligible for enrollment (similar to our past studies, see references 11,12)
  • Female patients who have undergone a hysterectomy, tubal ligation, or menopause, and non-pregnant women of child-bearing potential as eligible.
  • Patients who are nonsmokers or former smokers are eligible. Current smokers may also be included if they smoke <10 cigarettes per day (less than or equal to 10 cigarettes per day).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with a known allergy to collagen of animal origins.
  • Patients who will not cooperate with the follow-up schedule.
  • Patients will not be entered who are mentally incompetent, prisoners, or pregnant.
  • Patients who require soft tissue grafting specifically to treat exposed root coverage (gingival recession)
  • Pregnant women or women intending to become pregnant during the study period (as confirmed verbally; an over-the-counter pregnancy test will be provided if pregnancy status is unknown or suspected).
  • Patients who become pregnant during the study will be withdrawn and standard care will be delivered.
  • Patients with active or systemic infections other than periodontitis; a disease entity, condition or therapeutic regimen which decreases probability of soft tissue healing, e.g., poorly controlled diabetes, autoimmune diseases, long-term steroid therapy.
  • Smokers who smoke >10 cigarettes per day (more than 10 cigarettes per day)
  • People who live more than 50 miles from the UTSA School of Dentistry are not eligible.

参加者グループ / アーム
介入・治療
アクティブコンパレータ:Test Group Porcine Collagen Matrix
The recipient site to which the Zderm™ material will be placed will be prepared with a standard of care split thickness tissue flap at the site which needs augmentation of the KT.
The material used at the graft recipient site is xenograft collagen soft tissue matrix derived from porcine Achilles tendon (ZdermTM)
介入なし:Control Group - Palatal Graft
The recipient site to which the palatal autogenous donor tissue will be placed will be prepared with a standard of care split thickness tissue flap at the site which needs augmentation of the KT. The harvested tissue will be trimmed to the required size and shape with surgical scissors as indicated by the number of tooth/implant sites to be augmented
