Comparative Evaluation of the Efficacy of Human Chorion and Amnion With Coronally Advanced Flap for Recession Coverage: A Case Series.

Introduction: An amnion-chorion membrane is a placenta-derived tissue that has been introduced recently as a guided tissue regeneration membrane in dentistry. Numerous growth factors, proteins, and stem cell reserves in amnion could help in accelerated wound healing and regeneration, whereas chorion is a rich source of various collagen and non-collagen proteins. The present six-patient observational case series compares amnion and chorion allografts for recession coverage.
