Filter by:The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of two root-conditioning agents used in conjunction with subepithelial connective graft technique on root coverage outcomes. One is citric acid plus tetracycline and the other is antimicrobial photodynamic therapy.
The goal of this study is to compare clinical and histologically the soft tissue changes in terms of volume gain and stability around dental implants in cases where a subepithelial connective tissue graft from the palate or from the tuberosity is used randomly
The purpose of this study was the evaluation of inflammatory and healing profile after root coverage using of Enamel Matrix Derivative. 16 volunteers were selected and submitted to root coverage surgery with subepithelial connective tissue graft, with and without enamel matrix derivative. The patient screening was based in the following inclusion criteria: bilateral recessions in maxillary anterior homologous teeth with aesthetical complaining ou hypersensitivity, non-smokers, healthy and no use of any medication that compromises periodontal health or healing. The split-mouth randomized model was followed in relation to test and control sites. The following clinical parameters were analyzed at baseline and 6-month post-surgery: recession height, recession width, width of keratinized tissue, probing depth, clinical attachment level, and gingival thickness. In addition to the surgical analysis, evaluations of the following inflammatory markers were performed: IL-1β, IL -1RA, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-9, IL-10, IL12, IL-13, IL-15, IL-17, EOTAXIN, FGF, GCSF, GMCSF, IFN-y, IP-10, MCP-1, MIP 1a, PDGF-bb, MIP 1b, RANTES, TNF-α e VEGF. These evaluations were performed at baseline, 7 and 14 days after surgery.
Gingival recession is a common defect among the American population. It is also a major cause for root decay, hypersensitivity, contributes to tooth mobility and low self-esteem. Acellular dermal matrix, a human-derived grafting material has been put on the market for the treatment of gingival recession. Treating gingival recession with this material has been a validated treatment option for years. However, treatment outcomes in two patient populations, namely those with thin biotypes and those with thick biotypes, has not been investigated. This study will observe the primary treatment outcomes in the two patient groups at 5 time points - 3 months, 6 months and 12 months post-surgery to observe short term outcomes; additional 24 months and 48 months post-surgery to observe long term outcomes.
Aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of placental membrane with coronally advanced flap in covering single and multiple Miller's class I and II gingival recession defects.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of platelet rich plasma (PRP) combined with coronally advanced flap plus acellular dermal matrix application (CAF+ADM) in the treatment of multiple adjacent gingival recessions (MAGRs). 12 patients with 84 Miller Class I or II recession defects were participated. Sites were randomly assigned into CAF+ADM+PRP or CAF+ADM groups. Gingival recession depth (GRD), recession width (GRW), width of keratinized tissue (WKT), creeping attachment (CRA), root coverage (RC) as well as plaque index, gingival index, probing depth (PD), and clinical attachment level (CAL) were recorded at baseline and 3rd,6th and 12th months postoperatively. The data were analyzed statistically.
Comparison of Coronally advanced flap with semilunar vestibular incision technique for root coverage in patients with multiple gingival recession in maxillary teeth.
The purpose of this study is to test if the thickness of the graft taken from the roof of the mouth, has a significant effect on the amount of attached tissue and the amount of root coverage that are attained when treating a single tooth with gingival recession.
Over the years, numerous surgical techniques such as free autografts and pedicle grafts have been introduced to correct gingival recession defects. Combination grafts with either autografts or allografts, and newer concepts of guided tissue regeneration (GTR), platelet concentrates, etc., were developed more recently to correct mucogingival defects. The use of PRF in various surgical procedures such as degree II furcations, intrabony defects, sinus floor segmentation during implant placement and on facial plastic surgeries have shown promising results. However to our knowledge, till this study was completed, no studies have been reported with the clinical outcomes of autologous platelet rich fibrin membrane for the treatment of localized gingival recession defects. Hence, this study was designed to compare coronally advanced flap with platelet rich fibrin membrane versus subepithelial connective tissue graft in treatment of Miller's Class I and Class II gingival recession defects.
Platelet concentrates(PC) are used in the field of periodontology and implantology for the content necessary key cells and growth factors to accelerate healing and to provide regeneration. Concentrated Growth Factors(CGF) is defined as an innovative method or a new generation PC. The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of Concentrated Growth Factor(CGF) membrane with coronally advanced flap(CAF) procedure's and subepithelial connective tissue graft(SCTG) with CAF in the treatment of Miller class I gingival recessions (GR).
