Surgical operations will be carried out with local infiltration anesthesia with vasoconstrictor the gingivectomy or gingivoplasty operation will be done with the conventional method (the procedure of gingivectomy with a #15 scalpel), then Test group: I-PRF is placed on the wound area after a gingivectomy or gingivoplasty with the conventional method and closed with a periodontal dressing.\n\nControl group: closure of the wound area with only a periodontal dressing after a gingivectomy or gingivoplasty with the conventional method.\n\nPost-operative instructions will be given and patients will be asked to avoid brushing at the surgical sites for at least 7 days, 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate mouthwash twice daily for 14 days will be prescribed.\n\nClinical follow-up of patients:\n\nThe patients will be recalled for follow-up appointments on days 7, 14, and 21. The parameters evaluated in the control sessions were as follows:\n\n1. LTH wound healing index : there are many parameters to assess wound healing, but the Landry, Turnbull, and Hawley Index is easy and convenient to score . It has a scoring range from 1 to 5, the lowest being 1 and the highest being 5. The parameters measured in this index are the healing index, tissue color, bleeding on palpation, granulation tissue, and suppuration .\n2. MMS scale : the modified Manchester scar scale (MSS) was used to assess the color, contour, and distortion of the wound .\n\n The color of the wound was classified as a perfect match (score 0), mild mismatch (score 1), or obvious mismatch (score 2) compared with the neighboring mucosa. The contour of the wound was evaluated as similar (score0), slightly raised, or indented (score 1) and hypertrophic (score2) when compared with surrounding tissues. Wound distortion was evaluated as no distortion (score 0), mild distortion (score 1), and obvious distortion (score 2). The sum of the scores in the three categories shows the repair score of the wound, with a total score ranging from 0 to 6, with lower scores indicating better repair.\n3. Visual Analog Scale : Assessment patient satisfaction very important so, post operative pain will be evaluated by visual analog scale (VAS) . In this method, the patients will be asked to rate their pain at an examination in form of a score between 0 (no pain) and 100 (the most pain which patient has ever experienced) .\n\nGingival fluid sampling :\n\nGingival crevicular fluid (GCF) collection will be done before the operation (at base line), and after the operation (21th day). samples will be collected using sterile paper strips, Paper strips contaminated with blood or saliva will be discarded.\n\nThe samples will be assayed for PRL by using an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits.\n\nfull-mouth clinical examination, Initial periodontal therapy, clinical measurements, surgery operation, gingival crevicular fluid sampling and follow-up evaluations will be performed by the same periodontist.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '35 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* 1- Systemically healthy patients. 2- patients ages18-35years. 3- patients with chronic inflammatory gingival overgrowth. 4- patients with fibrotic gingival overgrowth. 5- Patients with enough attached gingiva. 6- Patients signing informed written consent.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n\\- 1) Pregnancy or lactation. 2) Any known systemic disease. 3) Any type of previous periodontal treatment (surgical or non-surgical) in the preceding 6 months.\n\n4\\) smokers and alcohol users 5) clinical attachment or bone loss. 6) Patients run on immunosuppressive agents, systemic corticosteroids, chemotherapy, and/or radiotherapy drugs taken or prescribed 2 months before the study attempt, which may affect the study results, wound healing, and coagulation mechanism.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT07174934', 'acronym': 'I-PRF', 'briefTitle': 'Effect of I-PRF After Gingivectomy', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER_GOV', 'fullName': 'Faculty of Dental Medicine for Girls'}, 'officialTitle': 'Evaluation of The Effect of Injectable Platelet-Rich Fibrin Application on Wound Healing Following Gingivectomy or Gingivoplasty: Randomized Controlled Clinical Study', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'P-ME-25-07'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'application of injectable platelet-rich fibrin after gingivectomy or gingivoplasty .', 'description': '10 systemically healthy patients with chronic inflammatory gingival enlargement will be randomly treated with gingivectomy or gingivoplasty and application of injectable platelet rich fibrin on wound area.', 'interventionNames': ['Biological: application of injectable platelet-rich fibrin on the wound area .']}, {'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'gingivectomy or gingivoplasty alone', 'description': '10 systemically healthy patients with chronic inflammatory gingival enlargement will be randomly treated with gingivectomy or gingivoplasty alone (control).'}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'application of injectable platelet-rich fibrin on the wound area .', 'type': 'BIOLOGICAL', 'description': 'Injectable platelet-rich fibrin will be prepared using low speed centrifugation technique, after centrifugation, the I-PRF in the upper part of the tube will be collected via an injector and will be transferred to a metal godet.
