EXPERIMENTALCoronally advanced flap with CTG
ACTIVE COMPARATORInterventions
A novel minimally invasive surgical approach laterally closed tunnel technique (LCT) has been recently introduced for the management of isolated gingival recession. The laterally closed tunnel technique ensures predictability by tunneling and mobilization of flap for graft coverage.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Single RT2 buccal gingival recession ≥ 2 mm in the esthetic zone (Gingival recession associated with loss of inter-proximal attachment. The amount of interproximal attachment loss (measured from the interproximal CEJ to the depth of the interproximal pocket) was less than or equal to the buccal attachment loss (measured from the buccal CEJ to the depth of the buccal pocket)
- Patients with good oral hygiene
- Medically free patients
- No signs of active periodontal disease (with no site showing probing depth \> 4 mm and full-mouth bleeding score (FMBS) 20% (measured at four sites per tooth).
- Palate with sufficient thickness to accommodate soft tissue defect.
You may not qualify if:
- Smokers
- Pregnancy
- Severe gag reflex
- Non-carious cervical lesion
- History of mucogingival or periodontal surgery at the experimental site
- History of medication that can affect periodontal healing
