Longitudinal evaluation of free autogenous gingival grafts

Dorfman, Howard S., Kennedy, James E., Bird, William C.·1980·Journal of Clinical Periodontology

Abstract

Abstract This study was designed to determine the necessity for and effectiveness of the free autogenous gingival graft in maintaining the periodontal attachment to teeth. Ninety‐two patients with bilateral facial surfaces of inadequate keratinized gingiva had a free autogenous gingival graft placed on one of the facial surfaces (experimental side) while the contralateral side served as the control. Measurements were recorded from the CEJ to the 1) free gingival margin, 2) base of the gingival sulcus, and 3) mucogingival junction on the mid‐facial of selected teeth. The Gingival Index and Plaque Index (Löe 1967) were also evaluated. A total of 107 grafts were performed and followed from 6 months to 2 years post grafting. Patients were recalled (scaling, root planing, plaque control instruction) and clinical parameters such as pocket depth, recession and attachment level were measured at 3‐ and 6‐month intervals. Both experimental (grafted) and control (unoperated) sides showed marked reduction in the Gingival Index and Plaque Index. Neither side demonstrated further attachment loss. It would appear that minimizing inflammation is sufficient to maintain attachment levels despite the width of keratinized attached gingiva.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
