“…This decrease was explained with the displacement of the gingival margin in the coronal direction, namely the creeping attachment. [36][37][38][39] The statistically significant decrease in GRA and CAL at the postoperative 1st, 3rd, and 6th months in both groups compared to the preoperative period in this study is consistent with this literature.…”

ObjectiveThe purpose of this retrospective study was to investigate the effects of Botulinum Toxin‐A (BTX‐A) injection into the mentalis muscle on the free gingival graft (FGG).Materials and MethodsForty patients with keratinized gingiva insufficiency and Cairo's RT 2 gingival recession (formerly classified as Miller class III) in their mandibular central incisors were randomly divided into two groups: FGG and FGG + BTX. Plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD), keratinized gingiva width (KGW), attached gingiva width (AGW), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival thickness (GT), gingival recession amount (GRA), gingival recession width (GRW), and root closure percentage (RCP%) parameters were measured at baseline and at first, third, and sixth months after the operation.ResultsThere was no difference in PI, GI, and PPD levels in both groups (p > 0.05). While the change in GT and RCP% levels were found to be statistically significantly higher at FGG + BTX group than FGG group, the change in GRW and CAL levels were statistically significantly lower (p < 0.05).ConclusionThe findings of this study indicate that BTX‐A injection applied to the mentalis muscle after FGG operation may have positive effects in terms of KGW, AGW, GT, RCP%, GRW, and CAL parameters.Clinical SignificanceAs a result of the fact that BTX‐A injection into the mentalis muscle contributed to the nutrition and immobility of FGG, positive developments were obtained in terms of clinical periodontal parameters. BTX‐A injection into the mentalis muscle may be an alternative method that increases the success rate of Cairo's RT 2 gingival recession.

“…The most important aspect of the present case report was significant gain in thickness of soft-tissue apical to recession that can further result in longterm stabilization of the covered recession tissue and creeping attachment later on. [12,13] However, 100% RC could not be obtained in the present case due to interdental bone loss and surgical limitation of the operator to reposition the gingival margin coronal to CEJ.…”

Gingival recession is the exposure of root surfaces due to apical migration of the gingival margins beyond the cementoenamel junction and is considered as one of the most common esthetic concerns associated with periodontal tissues. Insufficient gingival thickness and lack of adequate width of attached gingiva are considered to be the most common reason for progressive gingival recession. This case report presented the management of gingival recession in the lower anterior tooth using two-stage recession coverage technique. In the first stage, free gingival grafting was performed which was followed by coronally advanced flap in combination with cross-linked collagen matrix (Fibro-Gide, Geistlich Biomaterials, Switzerland) for recession coverage and enhancement of gingival thickness. Three-month follow-up of the case reported significant enhancement in clinical parameters with improvement in patient’s esthetic demand.

“…Limited number of patients in each surgical RC technique groups did not allow us to perform a network meta-analysis. In addition, all the included studies had a follow-up ≤12 months, which does not allow assessing the long-term effect of surgical RC techniques on DH, which could be influenced by a possible creeping attachment (Wan et al, 2020). Nevertheless, in one study not included in this systematic review (same population, further results), we observed an improvement in DH in two patients treated, respectively, with tunnel + CTG or CAF + CTG at 2 years of follow-up (Neves et al, 2020) compared to results at 6 months from the included study by Santamaria et al (2017).…”

Aim: To assess the effect of surgical root coverage (RC) on dentin hypersensitivity (DH) associated with gingival recession. Materials and Methods: Two independent reviewers conducted electronic literature searches in MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web Of Science, Dentistry & Oral Sciences Source, ScienceDirect, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases as well as a manual search to identify eligible clinical studies from January 2000 to March 2022. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing two surgical RC techniques or a surgical RC technique with or without adjuvant were included. Meta-analyses were performed on data provided by RCTs. Results: Thirteen RCTs with a total of 701 patients (1086 recessions) were included. The percentage of DH suppression was 70.8% (95% confidence interval [CI] [64.4-76.6]; I 2 = 39.2% [3.5-61.8], Q-test = 0.02) after surgical RC. Recession reduction and percentage of RC were both statistically significantly associated with DH suppression (estimate = 0.66 [0.10-1.23], p = .022, R 2 = 14.45% and estimate = 0.04 [0.01-0.08], p = .012, R 2 = 29.54%, respectively). Coronally advanced flap (CAF) + connective tissue graft showed results statistically more effective than CAF + xenogeneic collagen matrix in , respectively; p = .048).
