Conditions

Gingival Recession

Brief summary

The goal of the present study is to compare the amount of root coverage resulting from subepithelial connective tissue graft and acellular dermal matrix associated with tunnel technique among patients suffering from multiple gingival recession.

Detailed description

Acellular dermal matrix with Tunnel technique will offers great advantages for patients with multiple gingival recession as regards decrease surgical time, Post-Operative pain and root coverage, clinical attachment level, width of Keratinized gingiva, gingival biotype compared to subepithelial connective tissue graft with Tunnel technique.

Interventions

Puros Dermis is a collagenous membrane derived from solvent preserved,human dermis, works as biological scaffold for the new formation of vasculated connective tissue.

PROCEDURETunnel technique with the subepithelial connective tissue graft

Tunnel prepared with the placement of subepithelial connective tissue graft harvested from the palate
