Pontic Site Soft Tissue Augmentation Using De-epithelized Connective Tissue Graft Versus Partially De-epithelized Connective Tissue Graft

Egypt24 participantsStarted 2024-12-20

Plain-language summary

a comparative study to evaluate the pontic site soft tissue augmentation by partially de-epithelized connective tissue graft versus completely de-epithelized connective tissue graft (both grafts harvested from the hard palate). pontic site soft tissue augmentation allows the correction of soft tissue to allow proper fixed dental bridge fabrication (for esthetic and functional purposes)
