“…They obtained slightly better outcomes with CPF‫ם‬EMD in terms of root coverage and clinical attachment level than with CPF, but the differences were not statistically significant. Other studies 6,7,20) involving more cases and longer follow-up periods also found no significant differences between CPF and CPF‫ם‬EMD. Meanwhile, several studies 3,5,18) have shown significantly better outcomes with CPF‫ם‬EMD than with CPF in terms of percentage of root coverage, keratinized gingival gain, and attachment gain, revealing substantial variability in the outcomes of long-term studies of CPF‫ם‬EMD.…”

Various periodontal plastic surgical techniques are employed in obtaining root coverage. Recently, the use of an enamel matrix derivative (EMD) has been reported in such treatment. We report 2 cases of root coverage surgery with a coronally positioned flap in combination with EMD (CPF‫ם‬EMD) and connective tissue graft in combination with EMD (CTG‫ם‬EMD). Case 1: The patient was a 25-year-old woman referred to Suidobashi Hospital, Tokyo Dental College for root coverage surgery on the lower right first premolar. Gingival recession was classified as Miller Class II, as no alveolar bone loss or loss of attachment was observed in the interdental area, although recession had progressed to the mucogingival junction. The patient was diagnosed with local gingival recession caused by excessive tooth brushing. Primary conservative treatment failed to reduce the gingival recession. Subsequently, root coverage surgery with CPF‫ם‬EMD was carried out. As observation at the 1-year follow-up revealed complete root coverage and no recurrence of root exposure or subjective symptoms, the postoperative course was considered to be favorable. Case 2: The patient was a 39-year-old woman referred to Suidobashi Hospital, Tokyo Dental College for root coverage surgery on the lower left canine. Gingival recession was classified as Miller Class II. Root coverage surgery with CTG‫ם‬EMD was carried out. As observation at the 2-month follow-up revealed complete root coverage and no recurrence of root exposure, the postoperative course was considered to be favorable. These 2 cases indicate the effectiveness of root coverage surgery with CPF‫ם‬EMD and CTG‫ם‬EMD.

“…Recession coverage by coronally advanced flap procedure does not result in pocket formation but rather tissue attachment on the previously exposed root surface. 3,25,26,[31][32][33][34][35] In the present study, PD slightly increased between the 6-month and final evaluation in both groups. Thus VRD did not decrease through PD increase.…”

The connective tissue graft procedure was superior to the coronally positioned flap with the addition of enamel matrix proteins derivative in percentage of coverage and increase in width of keratinized tissue. The EMD procedure is a predictable treatment for root coverage that is relatively easy to perform and presents low patient morbidity, and is appropriate especially where a substantial increase in the width of keratinized tissue is not of prime importance.

Treatment of gingival recession has become an important therapeutic issue due to increasing cosmetic demand. Multiple surgical procedures have been developed to obtain predictable esthetic root coverage. More specifically, after periodontal regenerative surgery, the aim is to achieve complete wound healing and regeneration of the periodontal unit. A recent innovation in dentistry is the preparation and use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), a concentrated suspension of the growth factors, found in platelets. These growth factors are involved in wound healing and postulated as promoters of tissue regeneration. This paper reports the use of PRF membrane for root coverage on the labial surfaces of the mandibular anterior teeth. This was accomplished using laterally displaced flap technique with platelet rich fibrin (PRF) membrane at the recipient site.

Comparative study of Emdogain^® and coronally advanced flap technique in the treatment of human gingival recessions

Abstract: As the additional use of Emdogain together with coronally advanced flap technique for recession coverage showed no difference in the overall clinical outcome, there is no clear benefit to combine Emdogain with this surgical technique.
