Clinical evaluation of an acellular dermal matrix graft for root coverage during orthodontic treatment: A case report with 6 months follow up

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Dental Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

Abstract: Different soft tissue defects can be treated by a variety of surgical procedures and most of them need the palatal area as a donor site. An acellular dermal graft has become available and can be substitute for palatal donor tissue. This study reports the case of a 36-year old female patient with chief complaint of esthetic problem who presenting multiple gingival recession defects in anterior mandible during orthodontic treatment. CenoDerm combined with coronal positioned flap was used for management of three teeth with gingival recession. Complete root coverage was achieved in 71.4% of treated site in six months follow-up and the patient wass atisfied with the esthetic results. The mean root coverage was 68.0±6.9%. The reduction of recession depth and gain of clinical attachment were 4.1±0.6 mm and5.2±0.7 mm, respectively. According to our results, CenoDerm can be applied successfully in treatment of multiple gingival recession defects. Keywords: Acellular dermis, root coverage, gingival recession, CenoDerm.
