Complete root coverage in severe gingival recession with unfavorable prognosis using the tunneling technique

Coverage of gingival recession using pouch connective tissue graft technique

Cosmetic procedures have become an integral part of periodontal treatment. One of the commonly used esthetic periodontal procedures is coverage of denuded roots. The recession of gingiva is increasingly becoming a more prominent condition in the oral health of many patients and should be treated at its earliest detection. The multi-factorial etiology, decision modality, and current trends follo...

Gingival Recession Associated with Orthodontic Treatment and Root Coverage

Many patients seek to pursue orthodontic treatment for esthetic improvement. These patients present with malalignment of the anterior teeth. There was strong correlation between the severity and extent of gingival recessions and past orthodontic treatment, it was suggested that orthodontic tooth movement may lead to gingival recession. The principal objective in the treatment of gingival recess...

Root coverage with the free gingival graft following citric acid and EDTA

Introduction: Treatment of gingival recession and root coverage of denuded roots is one of the main goals of periodontal treatment. The purpose of this study is evaluation of two root conditioning techniques: EDTA (PH=7,24%) and citric acid (PH=1) in free gingival graft procedure. Methods: In this clinical trial study, 16 patients with 24 class I, II gingival recession (Miller classification)...

Severe Gingival Recession: Gingival Veneer a Method of Camouflage.

Clinical Comparison of the Subepithelial Connective Tissue versus Platelet-Rich Fibrin for the Multiple Gingival Recession Coverage on Anterior Teeth Using the Tunneling Technique

The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare, clinically, the efficiency of the subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) using the tunnel technique to cover the multiple gingival recessions on anterior teeth, in the same patient. Within the limits of this study, we conclude that both SCTG and L-PRF proved to be reliable options for the treatment of ging...
