perio plastic sx parts 3 and 4 Flashcards
freeze dried skin as graft
has been used in past but could grow hair
how could you tell graft material from native tissue 6 mo post op?
only histologically
techniques of autogenous gingival grafts
– Free Gingival Graft
* Miller’s Free Gingival Graft with use of citric acid
* Holbrook’s Free Gingival Graft technique with “stretching” suture design
– Connective Tissue Graft
– Semi-lunar Coronally Positioned Flap
– Laterally Positioned Flap
miller technique
free gingival graft with citric acid etch of root surface prior to graft/flap to disinfect surface and also not kill cells of flap/graft
immobilization of free gingival graft
– Place graft in saline-soaked sponge
– Place first suture in graft (out of the
mouth).
– Place graft onto recipient site and suture to immobilize the graft. (Suture at coronal aspect.)
more CT in the graft tisse leads to?
more shrinkage
holbrok procedure
use of sutures to streatch graft and prevent shrinkage
Coronally Positioned
Free Gingival Graft
placement of graft apical to a narrow band of KT, then allow 12wk healing before coronally repositioning the tissue
alloderm
freeze dried collagen matrix graft material (hypoallergenic)
advantages of CT graft
– root coverage?
– color?
– wound site?
– blood supply?
– High predictability of root coverage
– Good color blend
– Smaller palatal wound site
– Double blood supply at graft site
disadvantage of CT graft
– Technical finesse to do procedure at recipient and donor site
technique of CT graft
–Horizontal incisions at CEJs
–Vertical incisions at line angles of
adjacent teeth (optional)
–Partial thickness flap/split thickness
graft bed
donor tissue of CT graft
– incisions?
– mm thickness of graft?
– Place over?
– Suture connective tissue to?
– Recipient flap positioning?
– Parallel or “trap door” incisions
– 2 mm thickness of graft
– Place over denuded root surfaces
– Suture connective tissue to underlying
tissue with resorbable suture (optional)
– Recipient flap is coronally positioned over the connective tissue graft and sutured.
where is the thickest palatal tissue for a CT graft
Thickest palatal tissue is
opposite the bicuspids
blood supply of CT graft
flap and periosteum
