a minimally invasive technique called VISTA is used for treatment of gingival recession along with a combination of either a platelet concentrate or connective tissue graft.

Use of VISTA (Vestibular Incision Sub-periosteal Tunnel Access) with PRF (Platelet-rich Fibrin) and VISTA (Vestibular Incision Sub-periosteal Tunnel Access) with CTG (Connective Tissue Graft) in the treatment of multiple Millers class I and II gingival recession-A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial - VISTA
