Three-Dimensional Measurement of Soft Tissue Changes Following Surgical Correction of Recession Defects

Abstract

Historically, periodontal research evaluating the efficacy of root coverage procedures used the periodontal probe to obtain clinical measurements. This method has several inherent inaccuracies and does not allow for evaluating volumetric changes in the tissues. Purpose: Optical scanning of stone models may increase the accuracy of these measurements and provide information about volumetric tissue changes following gingival augmentation procedures. Methods: Thirty subjects will be consented and enrolled.
