Gingival recession is one of the most commonly encountered periodontal problem. It is one of the most difficult to treat periodontal issue since it requires great amount of clinical skills and patient co-operation. There are plethora of techniques and their modifications available with different levels of predictability for root coverage. One of the highlighted technique amongst many is the coronally repositioned semilunar flap. It has various advantages like tension free flap during healing (without sutures), better predictability and minimal clinical skills required. This case report describes in detail a case treated with semilunar flap and discusses further about it.

AbstractThe aim of this clinical trial was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of a collagen barrier along with an alloplastic bone graft in the treatment of gingival recession defects. Two patients having Miller’s Class I or Class II recession defects participated in the study. One was treated with a collagen membrane covered by a coronally positioned flap. Second patient also had bone graft placed beneath the membrane. Clinical parameters were recorded. Patients were followed postoperatively and healing was evaluated at 1, 3 and 6 months, with recession depth as the primary criteria for assessment. This case report revealed a favorable tissue response to bone graft and collagen membrane from both clinical and esthetic point of view in the treatment of gingival recession. Root coverage tended to be better with the addition of bone graft.

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.

This case report described a modified bilaminar technique for treating a single gingival recession. Patient presented a gingival recession in a maxillary canine. Tooth was in a buccally prominent position and soft keratinized tissue apical to the recession was reduced but still present. A split-full-split thickness trapezoidal flap was designed. Root’s surface was prepared with curettes. Epithelial-connective tissue graft was harvested from the palate with reduced dimension. After deepithelialization, the graft was placed with a fibrin-fibronectin system at the maximum root coverage level, and the flap coronally advanced and sutured. At 3-year follow-up control, the free gingival margin was still stable at the postsurgery position, with a thicker biotype corresponding to the grafted area, with no probing and a suitable aesthetic result.

Gingival Graft

ABSTRACT Gingival recession is defined as displacement of the soft tissue margin apical to the cementoenamel junction. The esthetic demand together with reduction of root sensitivity and management of root caries or cervical abrasion are the main indications for root coverage. Available literature indicates that free gingival graft (FGG) is a reliable procedure for root coverage with a success rate ranging from 76 to 95.5%. In this case report, a 32-year-old female patient having Miller's Class III gingival recession in relation to 31 was treated using free gingival graft with satisfactory postoperative results.

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.
