Clinical trials

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate local and systemic factors involved in oral mucosal healing after gingival recession treatment in diabetic patients and to compare them with those in non-diabetic patients. Diabetic and non-diabetic volunteers of both sexes aged ≥ 18 years with gingival recession may participate. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. If the gingival recession reduction and percentage of root coverage are different in diabetics compared to non-diabetics. 2. If different factors, such as the oral microbiome, inflammatory markers, and others, are associated with the clinical outcome. Participants will be asked: * Receive the procedure to treat their gingival recession defects * To attend follow-up visits at 7, 14, 30, 90, and 180 days after treatment. * To provide different biological samples * To answer different questionnaires.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate local and systemic factors involved in palatal mucosal healing after Free Gingival Graft harvest in diabetic patients and to compare them with those in non-diabetic patients. Diabetic and non-diabetic volunteers of both sexes aged ≥ 18 years with gingival recession may participate. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. If the palatal wound healing (area of the wound) and percentage of wound epithelialization are different in diabetics compared to non-diabetics. 2. If different factors, such as the oral microbiome, inflammatory markers, and others, are associated with the clinical outcome. Participants will be asked: * Receive the procedure to treat their gingival recession defects * To attend follow-up visits at 7, 14, 30, and 90 days after treatment. * To provide different biological samples * To answer different questionnaires.
