Aim of root coverage procedure is to restore the tissue margin to the Cemento-enamel junction. Many surgical techniques have been developed throughout the years and Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) based rootcoverage using different allograft membranes has been utilized to treat gingival recession with excellent results.This case report describes a case of gingival recession managed by chorion membrane with coronally advanced flap.

BACKGROUND: Gingival recession (GR), often an aesthetic concern to the patient, is also associated with root sensitivity, and has a predilection to root caries. The purpose of this case series was to evaluate a bioabsorbable collagen membrane for root coverage with guided tissue regeneration (GTR) procedure, in localized gingival recession defects. METHODS: Three cases presented in this case series, showing a localized Miller’s Class I or Class II gingival recession were treated for root coveragewith GTR-based collagen membrane. The graft was completely covered with coronally advanced flap and followed up to 6th month postoperatively. RESULTS: Six months following the procedure, the root coverage was found to be 100% in all three cases. The root coverage obtained appeared structurally and functionally stable. CONCLUSION: It may be concluded that the resorbable collagen membrane could be reliably used in the treatment of gingival recession.

When there are multiple recession defects affecting adjacent teeth, patient related considerations suggest the selection of the surgical techniques that allow simultaneous correction of all gingival defects with soft tissue close to the defects themselves. The present case report highlights the effectiveness of Zucchelli’s modified coronally advanced flap with envelope technique along with use of Platelet Rich Fibrin for the treatment of multiple recession defects in patients with aesthetics demands. Key Words Gingival recession, Zucchelli’s modified coronally advance flap, platelet rich fibrin, root coverage

The root coverage procedure to treat gingival recessions is the best line of treatment, being the most used the coronal advanced flap.  There have been multiple clinical and aesthetic results that cast doubt on whether this procedure by adding a connective tissue graft will be a more predictable and more aesthetic regarding defect removal. In this case report a patient 24-year-old male refers hypersensitivity and aesthetic discomfort in the area of gingival recession.  An autologous graft with a coronal flap advancement of connective tissue will be used. After six months of healing the patient reports improvements in: sensitivity, plaque control and aesthetics.

AbstractGingival recession has been defined as the term used to characterize the apical shift of the marginal gingiva from its normal position on the crown of the tooth to levels on the root surface beyond the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ). Numerous techniques have been developed for treatment of these defects including rotational and advanced gingival flaps, soft-tissue grafting procedures with autogenous and allograft materials. This paper illustrates a case report of 42-years-old male patient with a chief complaint of thermal root sensitivity in relation with front teeth of lower jaw and describes a technique to coronally advance the flap in combination with recombinant human platelet-derived growth factor-BB (rhPDGF-BB) (GEM 21S®) to treat multiple gingival recession defects. Patient was followed postoperatively, and healing was evaluated at 1, 3 and 6 months, with recession depth as the primary outcome measure. This case report revealed a favourable tissue response to GEM 21S® from both clinical and aesthetic points of view showing excellent plastic surgery results for gingiva.

One of the main purposes of mucogingival therapy is to obtain full root coverage. Several treatment modalities have been developed, but few techniques can provide complete root coverage in a class III Miller recession. Thus, the aim of this case report is to present a successful clinical case of a Miller class III gingival recession in which complete root coverage was obtained by means of a multidisciplinary approach. A 17-year-old Caucasian female was referred for treatment of a gingival recession on the mandibular left central incisor. The following procedures were planned for root coverage in this case: free gingival graft, orthodontic movement by means of alignment and leveling and coronally advanced flap (CAF). The case has been followed up for 12 years and the patient presents no recession, no abnormal probing depth and no bleeding on probing, with a wide attached gingiva band. A compromised tooth with poor prognosis, which would be indicated for extraction, can be treated by orthodontic movement and periodontal therapy, with possibility of 100% root coverage in some class III recessions.

Background/Aim. Gingival recession progression in clinical practice as an ethiological factor of periodontal diseases, and symptoms of the disease have caused the development of various surgical procedures and techniques of the reconstruction of periodontal defects. The aim of this study was to verify efficacy of surgical procedures that include connective tissue autotransplants with periosteum and guided tissue regeneration for the treatment of gingival recession. Methods. The study included 20 teet with gingival recession, M?ller class II and III. Ten teeth with gingival recession were treated with resorptive membrane and coronary guided surgical flap (GTR group). On the contralateral side 10 teeth with gingival recession were treated with connective tissue autotransplants with periosteum in combination with coronary guided surgical flap (TVT group). We measured the degree of epithelial attachment (DEA), width of subgingival curettage (WGC) and vertical deepness of recession (VDR). For statistical significance we used Student's ttest. Results. The study revealed statistical significance in reducing VDR by both used treatments. Root deepness in GTR and TVT group was 63.5%, and 90%, respectively. With both surgical techniques we achieved coronary dislocation of the epithelial attachment, larger zone of gingival curettage, and better oral hygiene. Conclusion. Current surgical techniques are effective in the regeneration of deep periodontal spaces and the treatment of gingival recession. Significantly better results were achieved with the used coronary guided surgical flap than with guided tissue regeneration.

Gingival recession is the most common mucogingival defect. It is characterized by the exposure of the tooth root surface resulting from displacement of the gingival margin below the cementoenamel junction. The denuded root surfaces compromise dental and gingival aesthetics with dentine hypersensitivity, caries proclivity, cervical abrasion and oral hygiene disability. When deciding root coverage, settled surgical techniques have been proposed and each procedure challenges to expand on limitations of the others. The purpose of this case report is to assess the esthetic correction of localized gingival recession using combined coronally positioned flap with connective tissue graft techniques. Long term evaluation, extended to two years after surgical treatment, is performed. The part of the prophylactic management to prevent potential future recessions is also enhanced. Significant increasing in keratinized and attached gingival tissues and reduction of height and width of recession were obtained. Gain of root coverage was 100% with great improvement in attachment level. Prevention of recession was accomplished and the results were stable after two years follow up. Patient-reported outcomes were satisfaction and esthetic appearance.
