Evaluation of Gingival Thickness with Microneedling and Vitamin C v/s. Microneedling and Injectable Platelet-Rich Fibrin (i-PRF) in Thin Gingival Phenotype.
Abstract
Introduction: A thin gingival phenotype increases the risk of gingival recession. Microneedling promotes tissue regeneration and i-PRF has shown potential in gingival augmentation. However, the effect of Vitamin C (commonly used for gingival depigmentation) in this context remains unexplored.
Objective: To compare the efficacy of microneedling with Vitamin C versus microneedling with i-PRF in enhancing gingival thickness and keratinized tissue width over six months.
Methodology: Systemically healthy individuals with a thin gingival phenotype (<0.8mm) will be randomly treated by two treatment modalities: Group A (microneedling + i-PRF) and Group B (microneedling + Vitamin C). Microneedling will be performed at 10-day intervals for four sessions, followed by injection of i-PRF or Vitamin C for two more appointments. Gingival thickness and keratinized tissue width will be compared at baseline and six months. Post-operative changes in gingival color and texture will also be compared.
Results: The study will assess differences in gingival thickness, keratinized tissue width, plaque index, gingival index, color and texture.
Conclusion: Analysis will determine whether Vitamin C can serve as an alternative to i-PRF for gingival augmentation, offering a minimally invasive approach for individuals with a thin gingival phenotype.
