Compact Topological Edge States in Flux-Dressed Graphenelike Photonic Lattices.

Flat band lattice systems promote the appearance of perfectly compact bulk states, whereas topology favors edge localization. In this work, we report the existence of compact topological edge states on flux-dressed photonic graphene ribbons. We found that robust localization is achieved through a synergy of Aharonov-Bohm caging and topological protection mechanisms.

Therapeutic efficacy of connective tissue autotransplants with periosteum and platelet rich plasma in the menagement of gingival recession.

Background/aim: Gingival recession progression in clinical practice has influenced the development of various surgical procedures and techniques for solving esthetic imperfections and subjective difficulties coused by gingival recession. The aim of this study was to verify efficacy of surgical procedures and to compare both of surgical procedures through the keratinized tissue width.

Methods: The study included 20 teeth with gingival recesion, Müller class I and II.
