Root coverage and papilla reconstruction in Class IV recession: a case report.

While root coverage is predictable for Miller Class I and II recessions, the surgical regeneration or reconstruction of a lost interdental papilla is more difficult to obtain. To date only a few successful case reports have been reported, and there are no studies that report a predictable technique to obtain papilla reconstruction or root coverage on Class IV recessions. This case report, which is part of a preliminary study, outlines a surgical technique to obtain simultaneous root coverage and papilla reconstruction.

[New attachment formation with guided tissue regeneration. Review of the literature].

Restoring gum epithelial-conjunctive attachment on calcified tooth surfaces is the main objective of every treatment program of periodontal lesions. Research works are resulting today in a better understanding of biological mechanisms involved in tissue healing or rebuilding processes. These scientific studies allow to control such new therapeutics that can create a biocompatible environment essential to the metabolism of regenerating cells.
