Gum tissue repair around an implant using two material types
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways of adding gum (soft tissue) around a dental implant—using donor gum tissue versus a different graft material. If you have a healthy implant with some gum recession, this study may help find which approach works better for healing and gum coverage.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are generally healthy and your body can heal normally
- Your mouth gum disease is controlled: no untreated periodontitis
- Your implant must be healthy, with no untreated gum inflammation or infection around it
- You have a single healthy functioning implant in the front of your mouth needing gum support
- You do not plan pregnancy, smoke daily, or have had a gum graft at that implant site in the last 6 months

This study compares two ways to add healthy gum tissue around dental implants: one uses a special gum graft material, the other uses a piece of your own gum. It aims to see which method works better for keeping implants stable and healthy.
This study compares two ways to add gum tissue around a dental implant to improve its appearance and health. One method uses a small piece of your own gum tissue, and the other uses a special collagen material.
This study compares three types of graft (tissue/covering materials) to help build up thicker gum and soft tissue around a dental implant. It may help improve appearance and protect the implant area when you have thin or missing gum tissue.
This trial tests whether adding gum tissue around a dental implant helps treat an infection around the implant. It may be a good fit if you have a dental implant with inflammation and very little attached gum.
This study tests whether taking a small piece of gum tissue from the roof of the mouth and placing it at a missing tooth site helps build up both the gum and the bone before placing a dental implant. It aims to improve the success and appearance of the implant.
This trial tests whether adding a soft-tissue gum graft procedure can improve healing and reduce inflammation in moderate to severe peri-implantitis (inflammation and tissue damage around a dental implant). It may help patients by targeting both the gum tissue and the area around the implant that is bleeding or has deep pockets.
