About

Gingival Recession (GR) is a common finding in among adults, regardless of the oral hygiene levels. When it is associated with esthetic impairment, dentin hypersensitivity, root caries, surgical treatment is indicated. Mid-buccal Gingival Recessions are an extremely prevalent condition and have root coverage potential through periodontal plastic surgery procedures.

A flap thickness of > 0.8 mm results in a covered root surface of 100%, whereas a flap thickness of < 0.8 mm results in partial root coverage in Coronally Advanced Flap (CAF)procedure.

The present study aims to increase the gingival thickness by microneedling procedures to enhance root coverage by CAF procedures in thin gingival phenotype.

Full description

Gingival recession is defined as the migration of the marginal tissue toward the apical of the cementoenamel junction. It is one of the most common mucogingival deformities requiring surgical correction. The rationale for treating buccal recessions are mainly aesthetic concerns, and clinical situations where unfavourable contour of the gingival margin might be an obstacle for proper plaque control. Cairo et al in 2018 categorised GRs into 3 types with reference to interdental clinical attachment loss as RT1, RT2 and RT3. Mid-buccal GRs have root coverage potential through periodontal plastic surgery procedures. Coronally positioned flap is a simple and predictable treatment of gingival recession defects. It has been observed that a flap thickness of > 0.8 mm results in a covered root surface of 100%, whereas a flap thickness of < 0.8 mm results in partial root coverage in CAF procedure. Microneedling (MN), creates microinjuries that result in minimal superficial bleedings and create a wound-healing cascade from which various growth factors are released. MN as opposed to Connective Tissue Grafts is a non-surgical approach to increase gingival thickness, that results in significant changes in the Gingival Thickness of individuals with thin gingival phenotype.
