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

Purpose. To date, it remains unknown whether the addition of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to bone grafts actually improves the effectiveness of maxillary sinus augmentation. This study aimed to perform a meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy of PRF in sinus lift.Materials and Methods. PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched. Randomized controlled studies were identified. The risk of bias was evaluated using the Cochrane Collaboration tool.Results. Five RCTs were included in our meta-analysis. Clinical, radiographic, and histomorphometric outcomes were considered. No implant failure or graft failure was detected in all included studies within the follow-up period. The percentage of contact length between newly formed bone substitute and bone in the PRF group was lower but lacked statistical significance (3.90%, 95% CI, -2.91% to 10.71%). The percentages of new bone formation (-1.59%, 95% CI, -5.36% to 2.18%) and soft-tissue area (-3.73%, 95% CI, -10.11% to 2.66%) were higher in the PRF group but were not significantly different. The percentage of residual bone graft was not significant in either group (4.57%, 95% CI, 0% to 9.14%).Conclusions. Within the limitations of this review, it was concluded that there were no statistical differences in survival rate, new bone formation, contact between newly formed bone and bone substitute, percentage of residual bone graft (BSV/TV), and soft-tissue area between the non-PRF and PRF groups. Current evidence supporting the necessity of adding PRF to bone graft in sinus augmentation is limited.

Free gingival graft is one of the technique used for root coverage so as to increase the inadequate keratinized tissue. The donor tissue is most frequently taken from the palate and generally the donor site is not covered or protected. Platelet rich fibrin is one of the good option for the wound coverage of donor site after free gingival graft so as to reduce the pain perception to patient and faster wound healing. The case report includes two cases with gingival recession, treated on the same day with free gingival graft with the use of platelet rich fibrin in the donor site in case 1 and without platelet rich fibrin in case 2 respectively which were compared for pain perception and wound healing postoperatively at 24 hours, 3 days, 5 days, 7 days and 14 days. There was less pain perception and discomfort in the donor site with the use of platelet rich fibrin and enhanced healing compared to donor site without platelet rich fibrin.

Oroantral communication (OAC) is a common complication following extraction of maxillary posterior teeth because of the close anatomic proximity of the roots to the maxillary sinus. The most frequent methods described in the literature to close an oroantral communication involve buccal or palatal rotational advancement flap surgery or use of the buccal fat pad. These surgical procedures require advanced surgical skill and are associated with donor sit morbidity, such as avascular flap necrosis that can lead to soft tissue graft failure to close the OAC, infection and extreme postoperative patient discomfort that affects patient quality of life. This paper describes a novel technique using leucocyte platelet-rich fibrin matrix obtained from the patient’s own venous blood that leads to predictable soft tissue regeneration and closure of the OAC. This regenerative medicine procedure is clinician friendly, less traumatic compared to traditional methods of OAC closure with minimal postoperative recovery for the patient.

Among the periodontal infections, gingival recession is a separate clinical entity which demands a permanent solution plan. Treatment therapies are based on either elimination (as in case of Miller’s class I/II recession) or increasing the width of keratinized gingiva for prevention of further progression (as in case of Miller’s class III/IV recession). From the centuries, graft surgeries like free gingival graft, lateral pedicle and Coronally advanced flaps have been successful in the  treatment of gingival recession. As every technique has its own merits and demerits, clinicians have tried to stress upon addition of certain adjuncts or biomaterials to ensure rapid healing and less post-operative discomfort. Platelet concentrates are an excellent biomaterials for increasing width of attached gingiva and enhancing wound healing. They are cost effective, do not require donor tissue for harvesting and contain variety of growth factors for initiating regeneration. In this paper, Platelet-rich fibrin a 2nd generation concentrates has been used as an adjunct to Coronally advanced flap with a purpose of increasing width of keratinized gingiva, obtaining complete root coverage and achieving gingival harmony.

ABSTRACTAim of study: The aim of this study was to Compare the effectiveness of Non-pedicled buccal fat pad versus Platelet rich fibrin in treatment of Miller class II gingival recession using vistubular Incision Subperiosteal Tunnel Access TechniquePatients and methods:This study was conducted on 40 patients with class II gingival recession in anterior or premolar segment. The entire patients were selected from the out patient clinic of the Oral Medicine, Oral Diagnosis, and Periodontology Department. Faculty of Dentistry, Minya University.Forty patients with gingival recession class II were divided randomly into two groups:Group I: (20 defect) using VISTA technique with Non- pedicled buccal fat pad (NPBFP), Group II: (20 defect) using VISTA technique with platelet rich fibrin (PRF).Results: In both groups all clinical parameters were statistically significant from pre-operative period till 6 months follow up period. In the comparison between the two groups after 6 months follow up period, there were no statistically significant difference between two groups regarding all clinical parameters except percentage of root coverage; there was significant increase in percentage of root coverage after 3 and 6 months follow up period in group II with p value was less than 0.05.Conclusion: Both PRF membrane and NPBFP are effective in the management of Class II gingival recession defects using VISTA technique. PRF group has better results regarding percentage of root coverage than NPBPF group after 3 and 6 months follow up.

Treatment of gingival recession has become an important therapeutic issue due to increasing cosmetic demand. Multiple surgical procedures have been developed to obtain predictable esthetic root coverage.. Low level laser therapy (LLLT) has biostimulative effect on platelets by inducing platelet degranulation. Therefore, it can be possible that the use of Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) treated with LLLT could help in increasing the concentration of growth factors in the wound healing, thus accelerates healing process. This paper reports the use of PRF treated with laser for root coverage on the labial surfaces of the maxillary right teeth. Keywords: Low level laser therapy (LLLT), Platelet rich fibrin (PRF), Modified VISTA technique.
