BACKGROUND A coronally advanced flap with subepithelial connective tissue graft is the gold standard surgical treatment of gingival recessions, since it offers a higher probability of achieving complete root coverage compared with other techniques. However, optimum short- and middle-term clinical results have also been obtained with coronally advanced flaps alone. The aim of the present study w...

BACKGROUND The scope was to review the three main clinical indications in periodontal plastic surgical procedures. AIMS To review the fundamental principles in periodontal plastic surgery, the main surgical designs in flap surgery applied to the treatment of recessions, peri-implant soft tissue deficiencies and soft tissue ridge augmentation, as well as the surgical principles of using autolo...

BACKGROUND Various surgical techniques have been proposed for treating gingival recession. This randomized clinical trial compared the coronally positioned flap (CPF) alone or in conjunction with a subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) in the treatment of gingival recession. METHODS Eleven non-smoking subjects with bilateral and comparable Miller Class I recession defects were selected...

statement of problem: one of the main goals in periodontal therapy is the correction of recession defects; therefore the efficacy and predictability of the various techniques are important considerations for clinicians. purpose: the purpose of this pilot study was to compare the outcomes of gingival recession therapy using the semilunar coronally repositioned flap (scrf) alone and in conjunctio...

Dişeti çekilmesi (DÇ), dişeti kenarının mine sement sınırına (MSS) göre apikale kayması ve kök yüzeyinin ağız ortamına açılması olarak tanımlanır. DÇ tedavisinin temel amacı; açığa çıkmış yüzeylerinin, inflamasyon bulguları gözlenmeyen, minimum sondlama derinliğine ideal estetiğe sahip yumuşak dokuyla kapatılmasıdır. DÇ’yle ilişkili dişin yüzey durumu da değerlendirilmelidir. Çürüksüz servikal ...

Background: Gingival recessions require treatment for many reasons – impaired aesthetic appearance, root sensitivity, cervical caries or abrasion. Two surgical techniques have been described that use free gingival graft for root coverage. The technique proposed by Bernimoullin et al. involves two surgical steps. The first step consists of creating attached gingiva by means of free gingival graf...

several techniques and materials have been introduced for the treatment of gingival recession defects. this article reports the case of a 43-year old female patient with chief complaint of esthetic problem, presenting multiple gingival recession defects in anterior maxilla. cenoderm combined with coronally positioned flap was used for management of six teeth with gingival recession. complete ro...

BACKGROUND Multirooted teeth offer unique and challenging problems due to the furcation area, creates situations in which routine periodontal procedures are somewhat limited and special procedures are generally required. CASE DETAIL The present case was showing the management of grade II furcation defect by platelet rich fibrin (PRF) and β-Tricalcium phosphate with coronally advanced flap. ...

OBJECTIVES Various coronally repositioned flap (CRF) techniques have been proposed for coverage of gingival recession defects. Although CRF has several modifications all of them needs vertical or oblique external releasing incisions for treatment of localized gingival recession defects. The aim of present article was to evaluate the effectiveness of a modification of the new CRF procedure witho...
