A NEW APPROACH TO TREAT GINGIVAL RECESSION- A CASE REPORT.
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research (IJAR) - Year 2019, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Gingival recession leads to exposure of the roots of the teeth creating unesthetic appearance of the teeth with elongated clinical crown. It may also be one of the cause for dentinal hypersensitivity. Several muco-gingival surgical procedures have been proved successful and predictable; among them, the most popular is sub-epithelial connective tissue graft described by Langer and Langer in 1985. One of the main disadvantage of sub-epithelial connective tissue graft is that it needs a second wound on the palate which can cause pain and hemorrhage. These limitations led to a search for an alternative graft material for root coverage procedures. ADM allografts were introduced in periodontal surgery in 1994as an alternative to autogenous free gingival grafts to achieve increased attachment of keratinized gingiva around natural teeth or implants and root coverage. This is a case report of a patient with Miller?s class I who was treated with ADM allograft.
