Summary

The aim of this study is to comparatively evaluate the advantages of LCT with SCTG over MCAT with SCTG for coverage of deep isolated mandibular anterior recession.

Conditions

  • Gingival Recession, Localized

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Group A The Laterally Closed Tunnel Technique with SCTG

Following the administration of local anaesthesia 2% lignocaine hydrochloride.In the LCT technique a bevelled intrasulcular incisions will be made around the necks of the affected teeth with Orban Knife.The tunnelling will be accomplished with tunneling instrument (TKN2).A mucoperiosteal tunnel will be prepared using a specially designed tunneling instrument.The muscle and collagen fibres will be released using surgical blades and gracey curettes.Subepithelial CTG will be harvested from palate using single incision technique.The graft will be removed and will be placed on saline soaked gauze and kept wet until its transfer to the recipient bed.An immediate closure of the donor site is performed using modified mattress sutures.The graft will be adapted to the CEJ by means of sling suture.Finally the margins of the pouch will be pulled together over the graft and sutured with interrupted sutures.The surgical sites will be protected with a non eugenol periodontal dressing.

PROCEDURE

Group B Modified Coronally Advanced Tunnel Technique with SCTG.

In MCAT technique all the buccal tissues will be undermined and connected only the papillary region will be left attached.A full thickness preparation of the papillary region will be created this will be done with a small elevator.A second surgical site to obtain the subepithelial CTG using single incision technique.A support suture will be performed to guide the CTG into the recipient site.The graft will be gently pushed into the pouch with a packing instrument and by pulling the support suture.The entire gingivopapillary complex will be moved coronally using a vertical mattress suture anchored in the lingual gingiva.The anchorage in the lingual gingiva will be placed far apically.The suture must capture the buccal flap and graft to avail optimal stabilization.The surgical sites will be protected with a non eugenol periodontal dressing.
