Summary

Recent plastic procedures have provided satisfactory results in the treatment of gingival recession but there is, presently, a greater need for procedure that cause less surgical morbidity as also provide improved results. In this study we propose a novel vertical tunnel technique as a minimally invasive approach (Vertical Y-shaped Tunnel Approach) and evaluate clinical results in comparison to CAMT, both using CTG. The novel technique allows stability of the graft, maximum coronal vascularity and minimum soft tissue reflection.

Conditions

  • Gingival Recession

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Y shaped Tunnel with Connective tissue graft

Sulcular incision followed by Micro-periosteal elevator will be used to elevate vertical full thickness tunnel starting coronally from the gingival sulcus and directed apically. CTG will be prepared and inserted into the coronal tunnel aperture using blunt instrument to facilitate intrusion of graft into tunnel. CTG insurted into the tunnel up to the apical level leaving a coronal part to completely cover the recession defect. Finally single interrupted suture will be used to secure the coronal exposed part of the CTG followed by sling suture fixation of the gingival flap with that of CTG. The donor CTG will be stabilized to the underlying connective tissue interproximally using 5.0 sutures.
