Gingival Graft

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.

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.

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.

Coverage Score

Esthetic demands among the patients have increased markedly over the past few years. The Gingival recession is one of the prime concerns, and there are various treatment modalities in managing recession defects. Most often, outcomes following root coverage procedures are not assessed. Thus the current article aims to determine the aesthetic outcome following various treatment modalities for root coverage procedures using Recession Score (RES). In the present study, seventeen patients with Miller Class I, II and III recession defects treated with root coverage procedures were evaluated retrospectively. Esthetic outcomes were assessed using the root coverage score (RES) . Among 17 managed recession sites, 6(35%) had complete root coverage. Three of six patients who attained complete root coverage had a perfect score (RES-10). Free Gingival Graft showed better root coverage and recession score (RES); however, there was no significant association between root coverage, RES and various treatment modalities used for recession coverage (p>0.05).
