Abstract
OBJECTIVE This split-mouth randomized study aimed to assess efficacy of leucocyte-platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) versus connective tissue graft (CTG) in achieving root coverage (RC) for multiple adjacent gingival recessions (MAGRs) throughout 12-month period. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study enrolled 59 teeth from 12 patients with Miller Class I MAGRs ≥ 2 mm on bilateral or contralateral sides. Patients were randomly assigned to receive coronally advanced flap (CAF) with either CTG (control) or L-PRF (test) treatment. Various parameters, including plaque and gingival index, clinical attachment level, recession depth, probing depth, recession width (RW), papilla width (PW), keratinized tissue width (KTW), gingival thickness (GT), percentage of RC, complete root coverage (CRC), and location of the relative gingival margin concerning the cemento-enamel junctions (GMCEJ) after CAF, were recorded at baseline, 3-, 6-, and 12-months post-surgery. On June 29, 2021 the study was registred to ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04942821). RESULTS Except KTW and GT gain, all clinical parameters, RC, and CRC were similar between the groups at all follow-up periods (p > 0.05). The higher GT and KTW gains were detected in the control group compared to test group at 12 months (p < 0.05). Both RC and CRC were positively associated with initial PW and GMCEJ, but negatively with initial RW (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The current study concludes that L-PRF were equally effective as CTG in treating MAGRs in terms of RC and CRC. Additionally, RC and CRC outcomes appeared to be influenced by GMCEJ, PW, and RW. CLINICAL RELEVANCE L-PRF could represent a feasible substitute for CTG in treating MAGRs.

Abstract
Background Complete and uneventful recession coverage should be the aim of gingival recession treatment. Systematic reviews have said that coronally advanced flap with connective tissue graft (CTG) is the gold standard for gingival recession treatment. Minimally invasive procedures with optical magnification allow minimal tissue manipulation and precise adaptation of wound edges helping in faster and uneventful healing, thus bringing about a satisfactory clinical and patient outcome. Thus, the following study compares the clinical- and patient-related outcomes of modified microsurgical tunnel technique (MMTT) and modified coronally advanced flap (MCAF) using CTG in the coverage of multiple adjacent Miller's class I and II gingival recessions. Materials and Methods Gingival recession patients were selected and were assigned randomly to either MMTT+CTG or MCAF+CTG. Clinical parameters were evaluated at 1, 3, and 6 months. Patient's satisfaction level was assessed by measuring root coverage esthetic score, hypersensitivity, and morbidity. The statistical analysis was performed using commercially available software SPSS version 14. Descriptive statistics were expressed as mean±standard deviation for each parameter. Intragroup comparison was done by using the paired T-test. Intergroup comparison was done using the independent Student's T-test. The significance level was set at P = 0.05. Results MMTT+CTG showed a statistically significant greater clinical- and patient-related outcome. Conclusion MMTT+CTG, being a closed procedure, preserves the blood supply, helps in faster healing, and does not compromise the esthetics. All these lead to decreased morbidity and increased patient satisfaction which makes MMTT a superior technique than the conventional procedure in gingival recession treatment.

Contemp Clin Dent 2022; 13:24-29. [PMID: 35466291 PMCID: PMC9030315 DOI: 10.4103/ccd.ccd_338_20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2020] [Revised: 09/26/2020] [Accepted: 12/07/2020] [Indexed: 11/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Context: Gingival recession is the most common mucogingival defect and is susceptible to tooth hypersensitivity, root caries, and esthetic problems if left untreated. A lateral pedicle flap is used to cover denuded roots that have adequate donor tissue laterally and adequate vestibular depth. A carefully planned surgery needs proper immobilization of the flap at the recipient site and this can be achieved by proper wound closure technique with appropriate material such as sutures or tissue adhesives. Aim: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of lateral pedicle flap stabilized with cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive and resorbable sutures. Materials and Methods: Twenty-two patients with Miller's class I and class II gingival recession were randomly divided into two groups: lateral pedicle flap stabilized with cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive (test) and lateral pedicle flap stabilized with resorbable sutures (control). Plaque index, gingival index, probing pocket depth, clinical attachment level, recession depth and width, height and thickness of keratinized gingiva were evaluated at baseline and 1st and 3rd month postoperatively. The percentage of root coverage was evaluated at the end of 3rd month postoperatively. Statistical Analysis Used: Intergroup comparisons for the clinical attachment level, recession depth, recession width, thickness of keratinized gingiva, and height of keratinized gingiva were made by Mann–Whitney test by analyzing the difference of two time periods. Intragroup comparisons were made by the Kruskal–Wallis test. Mann–Whitney test was used to compare the difference between various time periods within the group for all the selected variables. Results: The mean plaque index and gingival index at the 1st and 3rd month were found to be statistically significant and did not present any significant influence over other clinical parameters evaluated. A partial root coverage was observed in both the groups (71.97% for the test group and 61.36% for the control group). Conclusions: Cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive is clinically effective in the stabilization of the lateral pedicle flap and can be used as an alternative to resorbable sutures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This systematic review (SR) aims to evaluate the efficacy of modified coronally advanced flap (mCAF) on clinical and patient-reported outcomes in the treatment of multiple adjacent gingival recessions (MAGRs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Randomized controlled trials (RCTs), case-series and prospective clinical studies on treatment of Miller class I/II or RT1 MAGRs with ≥ 6 months follow-up were identified from the electronic databases and hand-searched journals. Complete root coverage (CRC) was the primary outcome variable. To evaluate treatment effects, meta-analysis was conducted, wherever appropriate. RESULTS A total of 1395 recessions in 408 patients were evaluated in SR and meta-analysis was performed for four RCTs. Overall CRC achieved with mCAF was 70% and mean root coverage (MRC) ranged from 51.58 to 97.27%. Meta-analysis showed that combination of mCAF with connective tissue graft (CTG) or collagen matrix (CM) demonstrated significantly higher CRC% and recession reduction than mCAF alone. Limited evidence is available to support the use of platelet rich fibrin or enamel matrix derivative or acellular dermal matrix graft along with mCAF to further enhance its efficacy. CONCLUSIONS mCAF is an effective procedure for treating MAGRs and in terms of achieving CRC and MRC. Additional use of CTG or CM further enhances treatment outcomes.

Abstract
Objectives To systematically assess the long‐term outcome (≥5 years) of root coverage procedures reported in controlled clinical trials. Material and Methods Literature search was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines with the following eligibility criteria: (a) English or German language; (b) controlled (CT) or randomised controlled clinical trials (RCT); (c) root coverage procedure with ≥5 years follow‐up; and (d) clinical treatment effect size and/or patient‐related outcome measures (PROMs) reported. Results Four CT and 14 RCT with a follow‐up of 5–20 years fulfilled the eligibility criteria; sample size per study ranged from 8 to 70 patients contributing with 18–149 sites. Coronally advanced flap (CAF) and CAF + connective tissue graft (CTG) were the prevalent treatments (i.e., in 24 and 38% of the groups, respectively), while other flap designs and adjuncts (i.e., enamel matrix derivative, bone graft, collagen membrane) were represented only once. For single Miller class I/II gingival recessions (GR), CAF + CTG appeared advantageous compared to other techniques, and provided low residual recession depths (i.e., ≤0.5 mm), and complete root coverage in ≥2/3 of the patients; similar tendency was observed for multiple GR. No data on Miller class III/IV GR is available. No meta‐analysis was feasible due to lack of similarity in the clinical and methodological characteristics across the trials and observed comparisons of interventions. Conclusions CAF + CTG appears to be the ‘gold standard’ technique for the treatment of single and multiple Miller class I/II GR also in regard to long‐term (i.e., ≥5 years of follow‐up) treatment outcomes. There is little information regarding the performance, on the long‐term, of other techniques and adjuncts.

Abstract
AIM This prospective cohort study evaluated late complications (LC) on recipient sites comparing two types of connective tissue grafts (CTG). MATERIALS AND METHODS Participants (n: 60) were treated with coronally advanced flap (CAF) plus CTG harvested by de-epithelialized technique (DE) (n:31) or two-parallel incision (PI) (n:29). Areas were evaluated to identify white discharge associated or not with gingival cul-de-sac. Patients were ordered in groups with (DE+and PI+) or without (DE- and PI-) LC. Biopsies for histopathological analysis in LC areas were proposed. RESULTS Six cases exhibited LC, 5 in DE graft (DE+) and 1 in PI graft (PI+) group; 2 were diagnosed at 3 months postoperatively, 3 at 6 months and one at 12 months. The relative risk for LC was 1.7 times greater for DE graft (p: 0.01; CI: 1.10 to 2.72; RR>1). Differences were not observed for clinical outcomes after both types of CTGs (p > 0.05). Biopsies showed deep invagination of the epithelial lining suggesting cyst-like area/ cavity with keratin content and consolidated in fibrous connective tissue. After 24 months biopsied areas presented no recurrence of LC, in non-biopsied patients the clinical condition remained unchanged. CONCLUSIONS Considering the limitations of this study, LC on recipient sites demonstrated no statistical difference between two types of CTG.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of soft tissue thickness (STT) on root coverage achieved with different periodontal plastic surgery procedures. BACKGROUND Gingival recession has been managed successfully through various surgical approaches, with great variability in outcomes. Anatomic characteristics of the recipient site and selected technique account in part for this variability. Gingival flap thickness is one of the most critical site-related characteristics. METHODS An electronic search was conducted on the major databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science). Human prospective studies with at least 6 mo of follow-up and with a numeric baseline measurement for gingival thickness were eligible. Only studies including nonsmoking patients were considered. Variables included surgical approach, participant characteristics, local anatomic factors, and follow-up time. Primary outcome was mean percentage root coverage (%RC) achieved, and complete root coverage was a secondary outcome. RESULTS A total of 42 studies were included (35 randomized controlled trials, 5 case series, 1 prospective cohort study, and 1 controlled clinical trial). Across studies, the pooled %RC was 81.9% (95% CI, 79.1% to 84.7%). The %RC was not significantly associated (P = 0.267) with baseline soft tissue thickness; however there was a significant (P = 0.031) inverse relationship between STT and %RC after 12-mo follow-up. Subgroup analysis showed that for no graft, there was a significant (P = 0.025) positive relationship between STT and %RC with the exclusion of the single outlier study based on STT. CONCLUSIONS STT plays a limited role in predicting root coverage across all approaches; when flaps are performed with no graft, the effect of STT is most critical. The length of time following surgery appears to influence outcomes, with 12-mo follow-up offering greater insight. KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER STATEMENT The results of this study can suggest to clinicians which periodontal plastic surgery technique to employ when treating challenging cases. In particular, it can be helpful when selecting the treatment approach to treat thin phenotype sites. This study could help clinicians provide a more appropriate treatment decision in such cases.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the long-term outcomes of Acellular Dermal Matrix (ADM) with Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF) or Tunnel technique (TUN) in the treatment of multiple adjacent gingival recessions (MAGRs). MATERIAL AND METHODS Nineteen of the original 24 patients contributing to a total number of 33 sites for CAF and 34 for TUN were available for the 12 years follow-up examination. Recession depth, mean root coverage (mRC), keratinized tissue width (KTW), gingival thickness (GT) were evaluated and compared with baseline values and 6-months results. Regression analysis was performed to identify factors related to the stability of the gingival margin. RESULTS A highly significant drop in mRC was observed for both groups from the 6 months timepoint to the 12 years recall (p < .001). While there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of Clinical Attachment Level (CAL), KTW, GT changes and Root Coverage Esthetic Score at each timepoint (p > .05). KTW ≥ 2 mm and GT ≥ 1.2 mm at 6-months were two predictors for stability of the gingival margin (p = .03 and p = .01, respectively). CONCLUSIONS A significant relapse of the gingival margin of MAGRs treated with CAF or TUN + ADM was observed after 12 years.
