Suture Removal Timing and its Effect on Root Coverage: A Randomized Clinical Trial
This suggests that a 2-week period before suture removal may optimize root coverage outcomes. However, extending suture removal timing beyond 2 weeks did not confer additional benefits.These findings are specific to the use of polypropylene and the CAF plus connective tissue graft. (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier [NCT04826653]).
