Background: The gold standard in the management of gingival recession (GR) defects has been connective tissue graft (CTG) with coronally advanced flap (CAF). But patient morbidity associated with graft harvesting is a major drawback and has led to the development of various substitute biomaterials which have been tried and tested.
Aim: Our study is aimed at checking the efficacy of marine collagen matrix (MCM) impregnated with injectable platelet-rich fibrin (I-PRF) with modified CAF in the treatment of Miller's class I and II recession defects. Six patients with ten GR defects in maxilla were treated with CAF + MCM + I-PRF. Clinical parameters like recession height (RH), recession width (RW), root coverage (RC%), width of attached gingiva (WAG), keratinized tissue height (KTH), probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), gingival biotype (GB), plaque index (PI), and visual analogue score (VAS-E) esthetic scores were evaluated up to six months. There was significant root coverage observed at three- and six-month follow-ups.
Conclusion: The proposed treatment was effective in the management of GR defects and improvement in soft tissue biotype without the morbidity associated with soft tissue harvest.

Regeneration of oral soft tissue defects, including mucogingival defects associated with the recession or loss of gingival and/or mucosal tissues around teeth and implants, is crucial for restoring oral tissue form, function, and health. This study presents a novel approach using three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting to fabricate individualized grafts with precise size, shape, and layer-by-layer cellular organization. A multicomponent polysaccharide/fibrinogen-based bioink is developed, and bioprinting parameters are optimized to create shape-controlled oral soft tissue (gingival) constructs.

Endosseous implant is an ideal treatment option for the treatment of denture defects and omissions. However, how to maintain the perfect gum contour of patients has been an important research topic for stomatologists and has attracted much attention. The objective of this study was to explore the advantages of minimally invasive touch-controlled implantation in maintaining soft tissue morphology in the aesthetic area of maxillary anterior teeth.

Introduction And Aim: There is a need for studies assessing the efficacy of different therapeutic approaches in the reconstructive surgical treatment of peri-implantitis. The aim of this case series is to evaluate the clinical outcomes and radiographic bone fill of reconstructive surgical treatment using the oscilating chitosan brush for implant surface decontamination.
Materials And Methods: Nine patients with 11 Class I and III peri-implantitis defects were included.

Periodontitis is a biofilm-induced chronic inflammatory disease that, if left untreated, can result in alveolar bone and tooth loss. Intrabony defects and furcation involvement (FI) are particularly difficult to manage, as they often persist after step 1 and step 2 periodontal therapy. In this case, we report a relatively novel therapeutic approach to managing deep furcation involvement in the first mandibular right molar (#46).
