Flap Thickness as a Predictor of Root Coverage: A Systematic Review [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Periodontology, 2006
Background: Thick gingival tissue eases manipulation, maintains vascularity, and promotes wound healing during and after surgery. A few recent case reports correlate greater flap thickness to mean and complete root coverage after mucogingival therapy for recession defects.

Periosteal pedicle graft: A novel root coverage approach

open access: diamondJournal of Indian Society of Periodontology, 2014
Gingival recession along with reduced width of attached gingiva and inadequate vestibular depth is a very common finding. Many techniques have been adopted in order to treat such defects and obtain predictable root coverage. Several graft procedures are used to obtain the coverage, but they have not been able to deliver predictable and satisfactory ...

A Critical Evaluation of Methods for Root Coverage [PDF]

open access: yesCritical Reviews in Oral Biology & Medicine, 1996
Gingival recession is the exposure of root surfaces due to apical migration of the gingival tissue margins. Although it seldom results in tooth loss, marginal tissue recession is associated with thermal and tactile sensitivity, esthetic complaints, and a tendency toward root caries. This article reviews the current surgical procedures for the coverage
