Aims. The aim of this prospective, randomized, blinded, controlled clinical trial was to compare clinical and patient-centered outcomes of Cairo recession type 1 (RT1) gingival recession defects treated with acellular dermal matrix (ADM) grafts and either Side Access Mucosal Releasing Incision (SAMRI) or Sulcular Tunnel Access (STA) techniques with coronal flap advancement (CAF). Methods. 11 patients, 22 surgical procedures and 81 gingival recession defect sites with Cairo RT1 gingival recession and £ 2mm of keratinized tissue at each site were randomly divided into two groups (A: SAMRI, B: STA) and were treated and evaluated for 12 months post-surgically. Clinical measurements …
A Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial To Compare Side Access Mucosal Releasing Incision (Samri) And Sulcular Tunnel Access And Root Coverage Procedures With Coronally Advanced Flap And Acellular Dermal Matrix (Adm) To Treat Teeth With Gingival Recession And Lack Of Adequate Keratinized Tissue.

Aims. The primary aim of this randomized, blinded, controlled clinical trial was to compare clinical and patient-centered outcomes obtained following soft tissue grafting utilizing the Side Access Mucosal Releasing Incision (SAMRI) or Sulcular Tunnel Access (STA) procedures with acellular dermal matrix (ADM) and coronal flap advancement to treat Miller Class I and II recession defects on single rooted teeth. Methods. Five patients and eight recession defect sites with Miller Class I or II gingival recession and £ 2mm of keratinized tissue at each site were randomly divided into two groups (A: SAMRI, B: STA) and were treated and evaluated for …
A Randomized Controlled Trial To Compare The Histomorphometric And Clinical Outcomes Of Soft Tissue Augmentation At The Time Of Lateral Ridge Augmentation Procedures, Kenneth Liu

Guided bone regeneration (GBR) can be used to augment deficient alveolar ridges in preparation for dental implant placement. Mucogingival deformities can result from the periosteal releasing incision during GBR. This can be addressed by additional soft tissue augmentation procedures to increase the width of keratinized tissue and vertical soft tissue thickness, both of which have demonstrated clinical benefits around implants. The drawbacks of soft tissue augmentation following ridge augmentation include an additional procedure, increased patient morbidity, and less patient acceptance of treatment. In general, soft tissue augmentation can be performed at various time points throughout treatment, but literature on soft …

Acellular dermal matrix allograft (ADMA) has emerged as a reliable substitute for autogenous soft tissue grafts in the treatment of gingival recessions and lack of keratinized gingiva (KG). ADMA has been hypothesized to create a zone of "immobile tissue" extending apical to the mucogingival junction (MGJ). This project aims to investigate the presence of this zone associated with the use of a coronally advanced flap in combination with either AlloDerm® (ADMA A) or Puros Dermis® (ADMA B) for root coverage procedures. Twenty patients, each presenting with one Miller Class I or II recession defect, were randomized to receive either ADMA …
