Microneedling with hyaluronic acid for making thin gums thicker
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to make thin gums thicker using tiny needles that deliver hyaluronic acid (a natural moisture-holding substance) into the gum tissue. It's for people who have thin gums on their front teeth and want to improve their gum health and appearance.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older.
- You should be in good overall health with no serious long-term illnesses.

- You must have good oral hygiene — no excessive plaque buildup.
- You cannot be a current smoker; if you used to smoke, you must have quit at least 12 months ago.
- You should not be pregnant or breastfeeding.

This study tests whether adding a special gel to a gum graft procedure helps thicken thin gums better than the graft alone. It may help people with naturally thin gums who want to improve their gum health and appearance.
This study compares two ways to make the gum thicker around dental implants: a new method using microneedling with a special gel made from your own blood, versus a standard gum graft. The goal is to improve the appearance and health of the gum tissue.
This study tests a procedure to thicken thin gums using platelet-rich fibrin (a concentrate from your own blood) and microneedling, with or without vitamin C. It may help people with naturally thin gums improve gum health and appearance.
This study compares two treatments — hyaluronic acid gel and I-PRF (a special liquid made from your own blood) — both combined with microneedling, to see which one better thickens the gum around dental implants. If you have thin gums around your implant, this treatment might help improve the appearance and health of your gum tissue.
This study tests if adding a special hyaluronic acid gel to a standard gum-repair surgery (called a coronally advanced flap) helps improve the results for people with a single receding gum. It may lead to better gum coverage and healing.
This study tests whether a gel containing hyaluronic acid and octenidine can improve the results of standard deep cleaning for advanced gum disease. It may help reduce gum pocket depth and bleeding without the need for surgery.
