The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) particles in combination with acellular dermal matrix (ADM) allograft in gingival recession. Experimental gingival recession defects were created in beagle dogs and randomly assigned to one of the following groups: ADM, ADM + β-TCP, or coronally positioned flap (CPF; control). Tissues were histologically examined at 4, 8, or 16 weeks following treatment. A greater thickness of gingiva was observed at the sites treated in both the ADM + β-TCP and ADM groups than in the CPF group. The ADM + β-TCP group showed a statistically significant increase in both new bone and cementum formations compared to the ADM group. The results suggest that the combination of β-TCP and ADM is more effective in promoting new bone and cementum formations than ADM graft alone.

Vitamin C mesotherapy with microneedling for gingival depigmentation: A case study.

Background: Surgical methods of gingival depigmentation can be challenging, particularly if the gingival phenotype is thin due to the risk of gingival recession and bone exposure. Thus, exploring alternative, non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment modalities is warranted. In dermatology, vitamin C is extensively used for depigmentation and microneedling for collagen induction, with limited literature about its usage for improving gingival esthetics.

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.

Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent

This split-mouth trial investigated the efficacy of treating bilateral gingival recessions with either a xenogeneic cross-linked collagen matrix (CCM), or recombinant human platelet derived growth factor (rhPDGF-BB) with a bone allograft (AG). Ten patients were treated with the coronally advanced flap (CAF), either with a CCM, or rhPDGF-BB + AG. The primary outcome was percentage of mean root coverage (mRC) at 12 months.

However, there is limited evidence regarding the long-term clinical performance of this approach.
Methods: This article presents the five-year follow-up outcomes of a combination therapy using CTG, bone substitutes, and biologics for the treatment of deep intrabony defects associated with gingival recession.
