Background:In recent times, aesthetics has become a major reason for the patients to seek the dentist. Gingival recession of the anterior teeth leads to long tooth appearance thereby hampering the aesthetics. The aim of the present study is to assess the efciency of modied coronally advanced ap (MCAF) technique in combination with platelet-rich brin (PRF) for recession coverage of Miller's class I and II cases. Materials and method: 10 patients with Miller's class I or class II gingiva were treated by modied coronally advanced ap (MCAF) technique in combination with platelet-rich brin (PRF). The clinical parameters such as gingival index (GI), bleeding on probing (BOP), probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), width of attached gingiva (WAG), thickness of attached gingiva (TAG) and the height of gingival recession (HGR) were recorded at baseline, 3 months and 6 months follow-up visits. Results: All the clinical parameters showed signicant improvement at 3 months and 6 months post-operatively when compared with the baseline values. The results obtained during the initial follow-up visit remained stable over a period of 6 months. Conclusion: MCAF is a foreseeable technique to achieve gingival recession coverage. Additionally, the use of PRF enables in improved WAG and TAG due to the release of growth factors.

Gingival recession is one of the aesthetic concern for a beautiful smile. In an aesthetically driven era, root coverage requires consideration of all prognostic factors for successful results. This paper reports a case of treatment of Miller’s Class I gingival recession involving multiple teeth. A modified coronally advanced flap procedure was performed. At the postoperative follow-up visits, healing was uneventful. After 9 months, excellent aesthetic result was achieved with complete root coverage. Periodontal health was normal and the patient was satisfied with the result.

ABSTRACT Background The purpose of this clinical trial was to compare the outcome of gingival recession technique using the coronally advanced flap (CAF) with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and amniotic membrane. Materials and methods About 15 patients with bilateral Miller class I buccal gingival recessions (4–5 mm) in maxillary and mandibular canines were selected. The recessions were randomly assigned to receive either the CAF with PRF or the CAF with amniotic membrane. Recession height (RH), recession width (RW), width of keratinized tissue (WKT), thickness of keratinized tissue (TKT), probing depth (PD), and clinical attachment level (CAL) were measured at baseline as well as 6 months postsurgery. Patient satisfaction with esthetics, root sensitivity, and postoperative pain was also evaluated. Results The average percentages of root coverage for CAF with PRF and CAF with amniotic membrane were 92.95% and 97.40% (p < 0.05) respectively, and the complete root coverage observed was 56.94% and 76.47% respectively. The CAF with amniotic membrane showed a statistically significant increase in TKT (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups with regard to RH, RW, WKT, PD, and CAL. The esthetic condition after both treatments was considered satisfactory by the patients. Conclusion The outcome of this study reflects that CAF with PRF and amniotic membrane can be successfully used to treat class I gingival recession. How to cite this article Gautam A.

BACKGROUND: Gingival recession (GR), often an aesthetic concern to the patient, is also associated with root sensitivity, and has a predilection to root caries. The purpose of this case series was to evaluate a bioabsorbable collagen membrane for root coverage with guided tissue regeneration (GTR) procedure, in localized gingival recession defects. METHODS: Three cases presented in this case series, showing a localized Miller’s Class I or Class II gingival recession were treated for root coveragewith GTR-based collagen membrane. The graft was completely covered with coronally advanced flap and followed up to 6th month postoperatively. RESULTS: Six months following the procedure, the root coverage was found to be 100% in all three cases. The root coverage obtained appeared structurally and functionally stable. CONCLUSION: It may be concluded that the resorbable collagen membrane could be reliably used in the treatment of gingival recession.
