A COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF VESTIBULAR INCISION SUBPERIOSTEAL TUNNEL ACCESS (VISTA) VERSUS CORONALLY ADVANCED FLAP WITH COLLAGEN MEMBRANE FOR THE TREATMENT OF MILLERS CLASS I AND CLASS II GINGIVAL RECESSION: A CLINICAL STUDY

Background: Gingival recession is defined asThe displacement of soft tissue margin apical to CEJ with exposure root surface. Factors such as abnormal tooth alignment in the arch, fenestration, dehiscence, faulty brushing, periodontal diseases etc. are few causes gingival recession. The aim present study was compare effectiveness minimally invasive Vestibular Incision Subperiosteal Tunnel Access (VISTA) technique and coronally advanced flap using a bioresorbable collagen membrane Millers Class I II recessions Material Methods: 20 sites or were recruited allocated into 2 groups 10 each. Test group: VISTA control CAF membrane. Plaque Index (PI), (GI), relative Clinical attachment level (CAL) Pocket Probing Depth (PPD) Recession Height (RH) width keratinized gingiva (WKG) Width (RW) measured at baseline 3 months 6 months. Results: A significant improvement found all clinical parameters group from reduction significantly more compared Control group. Conclusion: Both groups, viz: resorbable effective treatment being can be used for covering defects.
