Gum recession surgeries compared to improve gum coverage
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial looks at different dental (gum) surgeries to help cover areas where the gum has receded. If you have mild gum recession and good oral care, it may offer options to improve gum health and appearance.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are generally healthy (no major medical problems)
- You have gum recession in the early/mild category (RT1)
- You maintain fair oral hygiene
- You agree to sign consent and return for follow-up visits
- You do not have tooth decay or infections at the tooth root area

This study compares two surgical approaches to treat multiple areas of receded gums (where gum tissue has pulled back from teeth). Both techniques use grafted tissue to restore gum coverage and protect tooth roots.
This trial studies a procedure called a free gingival graft to cover exposed (receding) tooth roots and improve comfort and appearance. You might benefit if you have gum recession in the front lower teeth and meet the specific dental and health requirements.
This study tests a new volume-stable gum graft material to cover exposed tooth roots caused by receding gums. It is for healthy patients seeking treatment for gum recession on front teeth.
This study compares two ways of doing gum graft surgery to cover exposed tooth roots and improve gum health. You might benefit if you have receding gums on your lower front teeth and are looking for a treatment to reduce sensitivity and protect your teeth.
This trial looks at two ways to clean the tooth root before a common gum graft procedure. One method uses a special powder and water spray, the other uses hand tools. The goal is to see if one leads to better gum coverage.
This trial compares two surgical techniques (MCAT and VISTA) to fix receding gums on multiple teeth. It tests which method better restores gum thickness and reduces tooth sensitivity or cosmetic concerns.
