Er,Cr:YSGG Laser For Recipient Bed Bio-modification And Connective Tissue Harvesting in Treatment of Gingival Recession

Summary

A clinical and radiographic evaluation of using Erbium, Chromium, Scandium, Gallium and Garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG) laser in recipient site bio-modification and de-epithelialized connective tissue graft harvesting compared to conventional scalpel surgical technique in the treatment of class I and II Miller gingival recession.

Conditions

• Gingival Recession, Localized

Interventions

DEVICE

laser root surface conditioning & laser DGG harvesting

laser root surface bio-modification (single application) and placement of harvested de-epithelialized gingival graft (DGG) followed by coronal repositioned flap for gingival recession Miller's I, II defect coverage

DEVICE

laser root surface conditioning & blade DGG harvesting

laser root surface bio-modification (single application) and scalpel blade harvesting of de-epithelialized palatal graft (Zucchelli et al. 2010) and coronal repositioned flap for gingival recession Miller's I, II defect coverage

PROCEDURE

blade DGG harvesting

De-epithelialized palatal graft harvested using scalpel blade (Zucchelli et al. 2010) and coronal repositioned flap for gingival recession defect coverage
