Gingival recession is defined as the apical migration of the gingival margin from its physiologic level which further causes pathologic exposure of root surfaces. Mucogingival esthetic surgery includes the treatment of mucogingival esthetic alterations. The Mucogingival problems may be caused by gingival recession which is often associated with non-carious cervical lesion or by root caries or by altered passive eruption. Root coverage is achieved by many procedures like free gingival autografts, pedicle graft and connective tissue grafts. Recession can be treated by surgical or non-surgical means. surgical procedure includes various methods of increasing the width of keratinized tissue such as frenectomy in case of high frenal attachment & root coverage procedures and nonsurgical approach include-restorations, crowns, veneers and gingival masks. Lateral displaced pedicle flap was first described by Grupe and Warren in 1956 which was indicated in area to cover isolated apical migration of gingiva, & denuded root surfaces that have adequate amount of donor tissue adjacent to the recipient site. In few clinical studies it is seen that the success rate with Lateral pedicle graft is 70%, it is preferred over free gingival autografts in narrow and shallow gingival defects. This case report present the predictability of root coverage by using Lateral pedicle grafts in single tooth narrow and shallow gingival recession. Keywords: Lateral pedicle graft, Gingival recession, Attachment loss, Graft.

Gingival recession, whenever presents with sensitivity, aesthetic problem, root caries or difficulty in plaque control may pose a challenge for clinicians. Among the various treatment modalities for root coverage, laterally displaced flap has been a promising treatment for isolated gingival recession with an adequate amount of donor tissue adjacent to the recipient site. This case report presents a case of successful root coverage where laterally displaced flap was employed for the management of gingival recession in mandibular central incisor with two and a half years follow up.

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.

AbstractAmong the available techniques for gingival recession treatment, the main surgical technique for gain of keratinized tissue is the free gingival graft. This procedure is also indicated for vestibule extension and frenulum removal. The technique consists of the epithelial and connective tissues removal from a donor site and its repositioning on to a recipient site, being an effective primary stability mandatory for the healing process. The aim of this study was to describe a case report of a 35-year-old male, who reported a postoperative complication in donor area, after a free gingival graft which occurred 07 days later. This situation occurred after patient reported having rinsed his mouth with hot water during shower. Due to that, a 1mm thick acetate tray was readymade for the donor site comfort and protection. Among the demands presented in this case, free gingival graft was the primary surgical choice to increase keratinized tissue. Despite the patient’s morbidity, due to the two surgical sites, the use of the acetate tray showed great reduction in patient’s discomfort and trauma. This approach proved to be successful since the patient described increase in self-esteem and oral hygiene facilitation which in combination contributed to satisfactory final results.

ResumoEntre as técnicas disponíveis para o tratamento da recessão gengival, a principal técnica cirúrgica para ganho de tecido queratinizado é o enxerto gengival livre. Este procedimento também é indicado para extensão do vestíbulo e remoção do frênulo. A técnica consiste na remoção de tecidos epiteliais e conectivos de um local doador e seu reposicionamento no local receptor, sendo necessária uma estabilidade primária eficaz para o processo de cicatrização. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever um relato de caso de um homem de 35 anos, que relatou uma complicação pós-operatória na área doadora, 07 dias após a realização de um enxerto gengival livre. Essa situação ocorreu depois que o paciente relatou ter enxaguado a boca com água quente durante o banho. Devido a isso, uma placa de acetato de 1 mm de espessura foi preparada para conforto e proteção do local doador. Entre as demandas apresentadas neste caso, o enxerto gengival livre foi a principal opção cirúrgica para aumentar o tecido queratinizado. Apesar da morbidade do paciente, devido aos dois locais cirúrgicos, o uso da placa de acetato demonstrou grande redução no desconforto e trauma do paciente. Essa abordagem mostrou-se bem-sucedida, uma vez que o paciente descreveu aumento da autoestima e facilitação da higiene bucal, o que em conjunto contribuiu para resultados finais satisfatórios.

SummaryBackground/Aim: Gingival recession is defined as apical migration if the gingival margin associated with exposure of the cement - enamel junction. The gingival recessions are major esthetic concern in patients at any age. In cases with esthetic and functional considerations mucogingival surgery is indicated. The advantages of CAF with or without CTG are making this procedure highly recommended in the esthetic zone. The results are predictable about root coverage, widening if the gingival tissues and esthetics. The aim of the recent case report is to demonstrate the succesfull combination of coronally advanced flap with connective tissue graft in the treatment of wide and deep gingival recessions.Case Report: Female patient seeking consultation with great concern” not to lose the lower canines”. She noticed elongation of the teeth in the recent years complained with tenderness while brushing them. The initial examination showed presence of multiple gingival recessions in the upper and the lower jaw. Full periodontal status was taken and following diagnosis was established – dental plaque induced gingivitis, class II gingival recession in teeth #33 and #43 (Miller`s classification), RT1 by Cairo. After cause-related therapy two surgical procedures were performed in separate sessions. Both gingival recessions were surgically treated by means of CAF with CTG.Conclusions: Despite the limitating factors such as lack of keratinized tissue in the patient’s mandible that rather difficult the performance of the technique of choise, the coronally advanced flap with connective tissue graft is predictable technique for full root coverage.

The treatment of palatal gingival recession is technically challenging due to difficult accessibility and the nature of the palatal mucosa. Treatment of this defect was not reported routinely in the literature and perhaps is not usually performed. However, palatal gingival recession defects might be indicated for the treatment in some cases. This case report presents a method of using a rotational connective tissue pedicle flap to correct a palatal gingival recession defect. Substantial amount of root coverage was obtained with this technique (85.7%). Therefore, whenever indicated, the rotational connective tissue pedicle flap can be used to correct palatal gingival recession defects

The Gingival recession is considered a multi-factorial. The etiology may be an anatomically vulnerable area, faulty tooth brushing, high frenum attachment. In cases where there is progressive recession, aesthetics concern or increasing dentinal hypersensitivity, we can do recession coverage. Depending upon the presence or absence of adequate keratinized tissue we can choose the technique. In case of adequate width of keratinized tissue, usually we can do displaced flap and in case where there is inadequate width, we can do gingival grafting.

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.

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.
