چکیده
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Obtaining root coverage has become an important part of periodontal therapy. The aims of this studyare to evaluate the clinical efficacy of acellular dermal matrix graft in the coverage of denuded roots and also to examine the change in the width of keratinized gingiva. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 20 sites with more than or equal to 2 mm of recession depth were taken into the study, for treatment with acellular dermal matrix graft. The clinical parameters such as recession depth, recession width, width of keratinized gingiva, probing pocket depth (PD), and clinical attachment level (CAL) were measured at the baseline, 8th week, and at the end of the study (16th week). The defects were treated with a coronally positioned pedicle graft combined with acellular dermal matrix graft. RESULTS Out of 20 sites treated with acellular dermal matrix graft, seven sites showed complete root coverage (100%), and the mean root coverage obtained was 73.39%. There was a statistically significant reduction in recession depth, recession width, and probing PD. There was also a statistically significant increase in width of keratinized gingiva and also gain in CAL. The postoperative results were both clinically and statistically significant (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION The results of this study were esthetically acceptable to the patients and clinically acceptable in all cases. From this study, it may be concluded that acellular dermal matrix graft is an excellent substitute for autogenous graft in coverage of denuded roots.

Statement of Problem: Various surgical procedures have been used to achieve root coverage and subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) is identified as one of the most successful techniques. Recently, acellular dermal matrix allograft (ADMA) has been developed as a substitute for SCTG to avoid removing the palatal connective tissue. Purpose: The present study compared the clinical efficienc...

The American Academy of Periodontology 1 has defined marginal tissue recession as an acquired deformity with the gingival margin being located apical to the cementoenamel junction (CEJ), resulting in exposed root surface and loss of attached gingiva. Gingival recession is a common feature in populations with high as well as poor standards of oral hygiene 2 . Many factors have been proposed to i...
