Efficacy of coronally advanced flap technique with collagen matrix Mucoderm in covering multiple recessions – preliminary results
Journal Title: Journal of Stomatology (Czasopismo Stomatologiczne) - Year 2018, Vol 71, Issue 6
Abstract
Background The aim of this case series study was to evaluate the efficacy of root coverage using the coronally advanced flap technique with collagen matrix for the treatment of multiple recessions of Miller Classes I and II over a short period of time. Material and methods Twelve patients were enrolled in the study. Clinical recordings were obtained at baseline and after 3 months: RD (recession depth), RW (recession width), KTW (width of keratinized tissue), CAL (clinical attachment level), CEJ-MGJ was recorded from CEJ (cement-enamel junction to the mucogingival junction; PD (depth of gingival sulcus) and RA (recession area) was calculated. The percentage of average recession coverage (ARC) and the percentage of complete covered recessions (CRC) were evaluated after 3 months after the surgery. Results Significant decreases were recorded according to all of the parameters of recessions in comparison to the baseline measurements. The recession depth decreased from 2.0 mm to 0.5 mm. The mean ARC was 87% and CRC 47%. Conclusion Xenogenic collagen matrix combined with the coronally advanced flap technique led to a satisfactory ARC and an insignificant increase in the width of the keratinized tissue, but it yielded a lower, unsatisfactory CRC.<br/><br/>

The Effect of a Removable Acrylic Partial Denture based on Kennedy’s Classification of Masticatory Ability
Tooth loss can disrupt masticatory ability and often impacts a patient's general health and quality of life. Among the variety of means to classify tooth loss, the Kennedy's classification is perhaps the most popular. Th...
