Modified gum graft for lower front teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests a modified gum grafting technique to treat gum recession on lower front teeth. It may help if you have a small amount of recession and keep your teeth very clean.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have gum recession on one or both of your lower front teeth (at most two teeth).
- The recession is mild (not extending into the area between teeth or causing other issues).
- You have very good oral hygiene (less than 20% plaque).
- You are between 18 and 64 years old.
- You do not smoke, are not pregnant/breastfeeding, and are not taking medications that affect healing or bleeding.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies a “free mucogingival graft,” a surgical gum tissue transplant, to cover exposed root (recession) in a specific area of the lower front teeth. If you have a deep recession in a healthy mouth with low gum bleeding, you may be able to try this approach and help researchers learn how well it works.
This trial tests whether a modified free gum graft works better than the standard free gum graft to treat gum recession on lower front teeth. It may be an option if you have shallow gum tissue and healthy gums.
This study tests different approaches to improve gum recession (when gums pull back) using a free gum-tissue graft. It may help people who have a specific pattern of thin, low-attached gum tissue and need grafting on the lower front teeth.
This trial tests a new way to do a gum graft on the lower front teeth. The goal is to cover exposed roots and improve comfort. It's for people with specific types of gum recession and thin gum tissue.
This study tests a surgical technique to cover exposed tooth roots on the inside of your lower front teeth using gum tissue from the roof of your mouth. It may help reduce sensitivity and improve the appearance of receded gums.
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.
