Predetermination of Root Coverage

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, 2010
Background: A method to predetermine the maximum root coverage level (MRC) achievable with surgery was recently presented. The present study evaluates the predictability of such a method by comparing the predetermined MRC with that effectively achieved by means of root coverage surgical procedures.Methods: A total of 50 patients with single and ...

The Deceptive Nature of Root Coverage Results

Journal of Periodontology, 2000
Background: The purposes of this article are to: 1) propose a new method of reporting root coverage data; 2) compare existing root coverage techniques using the proposed data analysis method; and 3) discuss additional refinements to root coverage data analysis. Past studies have equated percent defect coverage with root coverage.

Tunneling Techniques for Root Coverage

Current Oral Health Reports, 2019
Tunneling technique (TUN) has been introduced as a minimally invasive and highly esthetic treatment option for the treatment of gingival recession, one of the most frequent mucogingival deformities and conditions. The purpose of the present article is to review how specific technique modifications, different grafting materials, and different defect ...

Decision making in root‐coverage procedures for the esthetic outcome

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, 2018
AbstractThe primary indication for treatment of gingival recessions is esthetics. In the last decades, patients have become increasingly more demanding in the esthetic outcome expected. In order to obtain a successful final result, periodontal plastic surgery should provide not only complete root coverage but also perfect blending in terms of color and

Coverage of Previously Carious Roots Is as Predictable a Procedure as Coverage of Intact Roots

Journal of Periodontology, 2002
Background: Coverage of roots exposed by gingival recession is one of the main objectives of periodontal reconstructive surgery. A variety of highly predictable and esthetically acceptable mucogingival grafting procedures are available for treating intact root surfaces.

Therapeutic Prognosis System for Root Coverage Procedures

The International Journal of Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry, 2021
Although several techniques and materials have been adopted to treat gingival recession, the therapeutic prognosis of various treatment modalities is not well established. This article proposes a multidimensional therapeutic prognosis system for the treatment of gingival recession based on the currently available literature.

The Semilunar Flap Technique for Root Coverage

Atlas of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Clinics, 1999
The semilunar flap technique may be considered as a simple, minimally invasive option for coronally repositioning the receded free gingival margin on the facial aspects of natural teeth and implants. Judicious case selection and careful application of the described procedure may enhance the final esthetic outcome using this approach.

A Comparison of Two Techniques for Attaining Root Coverage

Journal of Periodontology, 1992
This study compared the relative success of soft tissue coverage of denuded roots by two surgical procedures: Autogenous free gingival graft (FGG) and a 2‐stage coronallypositioned flap (CPF). Eight patients who had bilateral areas of gingival recession were selected.

Root Coverage with the Free Gingival Graft

Journal of Periodontology, 1987
The free soft tissue autograft when used for increasing the amount of attached gingiva is a relatively simple surgical procedure. The use of the free soft tissue autograft for root coverage, however, is a much more technically demanding procedure requiring the periodontist to consider additional factors.
