Root coverage using a microsurfaced acellular dermal matrix: A retrospective case series
Abstract Background Acellular dermal matrices (ADMs) have been used for root coverage for over 25 years, yet few advancements have improved clinical outcomes or reduced complications. This case series evaluated the use of a novel microsurfaced ADM (mADM), which features a microtextured surface designed intended to promote healing and improve graft ...
