Aging in the upper face becomes more evident as the eyebrow level descends. Sometimes this may begin at an early age. The senior author has described a limited approach for the treatment of this aesthetic alteration. In selected cases, the juxtapilose incision, placed laterally at the margin of the anterior hairline, allows for the subperiosteal undermining of the entire forehead and dissection of the elements that cause the descent of the eyebrow. The procedure is safe and expedient, and permits for a controlled repositioning of the eyebrow. In this paper, the authors describe the juxtapilose incision and the subperiosteal approach of the forehead as a practical ancillary procedure for correction of the aging face.

Background: Tooth agenesis, particularly the absence of upper lateral incisors, presents substantial challenges for clinicians due to the associated bone atrophy, which limits the use of traditional implant solutions. Current options, such as endosseous implants combined with guided bone regeneration (GBR), often fail due to insufficient osseointegration in atrophic bone. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of custom-made, additively manufactured subperiosteal implants in addressing these challenges METHODS: This retrospective study assessed 16 custom-made subperiosteal implants used in 12 patients (10 females, 2 males; mean age 25 ± 2.

Background: Gingival recession has a multifactorial etiology, involving various predisposing and precipitating factors. Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) are often associated with gingival recession and pose challenges due to their complex pathodynamics. There is limited evidence regarding tunnel-based procedures combined with connective tissue grafts (CTGs) for treating recession-associated NCCLs.

Treatment of gingival recession with vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access and advanced platelet-rich fibrin.

BMC Oral Health

Oral Medicine, Periodontology, Diagnosis and Oral Radiology Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University, Mansoura, 33516, Egypt.

Objectives: The current literature about the effect of advanced platelet rich fibrin(A-PRF) with vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access (VISTA) technique in treating gingival recession is scarce. Therefore, the aim of the current randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of A-PRF with VISTA technique in the treatment of Cairo class 1 gingival recession (RT1).

Methods: Twenty-four patients who met the eligibility criteria were randomly allocated into two groups.

The integrity and phenotype of periodontal soft tissues significantly influence the outcome of surgical periodontal regenerative therapy. In cases with thin gingival phenotype, treating infrabony defects surgically can worsen gingival recession and loss of papillae. This report outlines a surgical approach for addressing infrabony defects at sites with gingival recession and thin phenotype.
