Advanced gingival recession is considered a complex soft tissue problem, which is increased in severity with age, and has multiple etiological factors. Therefore, the treatment is very complicated with low predictability. However, in the last decade, many clinical trials have shown highly predictable results when managing advanced recession cases by surgical intervention. The present review shows different surgical techniques with their clinical outcomes in order to choose the most suitable technique required by the clinical condition. Although there are relatively few studies, modified tunnel technique and coronal advanced flap (CAF) showed the highest percentage of root coverage (%RC) during the first year (up to 86%). These techniques are primarily indicated to manage advanced recession in the esthetic zone. Pedicle buccal fat pad (PBFP) also had a good percentage of root coverage when used in the maxillary posterior area, as it has a high blood supply with minimal risk for infection and necrosis. Free gingival graft (FGG) can be used in the mandibular anterior area, as it creates a band of keratinized tissue that can resist recession with a fair percentage of root coverage. However, color match and graft shrinkage are the main problems of this procedure.

Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) is widely used in clinical applications for non-invasive measurements of soft tissue viscoelasticity. The study of tissue viscoelasticity often involves the analysis of shear wave phase velocity dispersion curves, which show how the phase velocity varies with frequency or wavelength. In this study, we propose an alternative method to the two-dimensional Fourier transform (2D-FT) and Phase Gradient (PG) methods for shear wave phase velocity estimation.

Inflammation-proliferation transition plays a key role in the successful healing of a common burn type, second-degree burn. Gynura procumbens in vitro adventitious root nanohydrogel is currently being studied for its immunomodulatory to improve reparative environment. Root production and nanohydrogel preparation was done respectively by in vitro propagation and emulsion/ solvent diffusion with carbomer as a polymer.

Solid waste is one of the primary contributors to environmental pollution currently, it is crucial to enhance the prevention and control of solid waste pollution in environmental management. The effectiveness of the second stage of purification in the industrial zinc hydrometallurgy is determined by the concentration of cobalt ion. Manual testing and monitoring of cobalt ion concentration are time consuming and costly, and prone to delays, which can result in discharge of cobalt ion concentration that does not meet the standards, leading to water pollution.

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.
