Papilla Suture Design Affects Papillary Postsurgical Dimensions
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The current prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial aimed at comparing the impact of papillae suture technique on interdental papilla dimensions after periodontal surgery using a novel 3D intraoral scanning technique.

Detailed Description
Scientific rationale for study: Choosing the appropriate suture design for periodontal surgery may affect post-surgery tissue dimension. This is a critical issue in periodontal surgery due to the grave impact papilla play on soft tissue esthetics.
Principal findings: using the novel 3D scanning of the gingiva tissue show that simple interrupted suture negatively affect post-surgery papillary height and recession adjacent to the suture compared with vertical internal mattress suture.
Practical implications: the study provide evidence that allows the clinician to better choose the suture design that will allow optimal healing of the papilla. Furthermore, the study presents a novel 3D scanning method to analyzed dimensional changes in the soft tissue.
