Abstract

Background: Years of research have well demonstrated the pivotal role the attached gingiva plays in maintaining of periodontal health.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of two technics, amniotic allograft and free gingival graft (FGG), in improving the attached gingiva width (AGW) around the teeth.

Methods: In this randomized controlled clinical trial study, 28 patients all in need of increased AGW were randomly halved and assigned to a test group receiving the amniotic allograft and a control group treated by a palatal FGG. Following the operation, the mean AGW, graft shrinkage, and color match were assessed and photographed at various intervals (1, 2, 6, and 12 weeks). The level of pain was also evaluated based on the visual analog scale (VAS).

Results: The AGW was not significantly different between the two groups in 2, 6 and, 12 weeks postoperatively (P=0.17, 0.73, 0.76 respectively). The same applied to the amount of shrinkage between the two groups at the intervals (p=0.38, p=0.57 and p=0.52 respectively). The amniotic allograft group was superior (not significantly) in terms of the color match (p=0.59, p=0.31 and p=0.18 respectively). However, it was found to have significantly lower VAS pain scores than did the control group (p <0.05).

Conclusion: Application of the amniotic allograft could decrease the postoperative pain as well as discomfort and effectively increase the AGW. Therefore, given the drawbacks of FGG, the amniotic allograft can be considered as a viable alternative.

羊膜同种异体移植,一种可能替代游离牙龈移植改善附着龈宽度的方法:一项随机对照临床试验。
背景:多年的研究已经很好地证明了附着龈在维持牙周健康方面的关键作用。目的:比较同种异体羊膜移植和游离龈移植(FGG)两种技术改善牙周附着龈宽度(AGW)的效果。方法:随机对照临床研究,28例需要增加AGW的患者随机分成两组,实验组接受同种异体羊膜移植,对照组接受腭部FGG治疗。手术后,在不同的时间间隔(1,2,6和12周)评估和拍摄平均AGW,移植物收缩和颜色匹配。根据视觉模拟评分(VAS)评估疼痛程度。结果:两组患者术后2周、6周、12周AGW比较,差异均无统计学意义(P值分别为0.17、0.73、0.76)。这同样适用于两组之间的收缩量(p=0.38, p=0.57和p=0.52分别)。同种异体羊膜移植组在颜色匹配方面优于同种异体羊膜移植组(p=0.59, p=0.31, p=0.18)。但VAS疼痛评分明显低于对照组(p)。结论:应用同种异体羊膜移植可减轻术后疼痛和不适,有效提高AGW。因此,考虑到FGG的缺点,羊膜异体移植可以被认为是一种可行的替代方法。
