Perio Plastics III Flashcards
What is included in “1st generation” treatment for root coverage?
Pedicle flaps w/ or w/o autologous CTG
GTR based root coverage procedures
What is included in “2nd generation” root coverage procedures?
Pedicle flaps w/ CTG substitutes (ADM/CM)
What is included in “3rd generation” root coverage procedures?
pedicle flaps w/ tissue-engineered biomaterials: EMD/PDGF/PRP/Cell Therapy
What are pros/cons of ADM/CM?
no donor site
less time
unlimited amount
Long term instability/rebound
CTG better
NO CREEPING ATTACHMENT
What are pros/cons of 3rd generation treatments?
no donor site
may promote regeneration
less results
less predictable
expensive
What are the 3 (broad) procedures that can be used to correct soft tissue defects?
Mucogingival procedures (pedicle flaps)
Soft tissue grafts (xCTG, FGG, ADM)
GTR (resorbable or non-resorbable)
What pair coined the term “compartmentalization” and what was the new term? What was the evolution?
McCulloch et al. 1987 (with Melcher)
Melcher said compartmentalization just with PDL
McCulloch said PDL/Cementum/Bone Cells (Open Compartmentalization)
Who first used GTR for recession coverage?
Tinti & Vicenzi 1990
What kind of membrane did they use in the first GTR for recession coverage?
ePTFE
How does GTR w/ non-resorbable membrane compare to mucogingival surgeries for root coverage?
Pini Prato et al. 1992 (RCT) & 1996 (4yr follow up)
GTR w/ ePTFE vs FGG then CAF
NSSD in root coverage
Stable over 4 years
What are advantages of Collagen Membranes in GTR for Root Coverage?
Wang et al. 2012 (BiG CHeeSe) Biocompatible Gingival Thickness Chemotactic Hemostatic Semi-permeable (gas and nutrient exchange)
How does CAF compare to CAF+XCM?
Jepsen et al. 2013
RCT-Split Mouth
Root coverage: NSSD
Complete root coverage: NSSD
How does CAF+CTG compare to CAF+XCM?
Tonetti et al. 2018
RCT - 187pts
CM+CAF: Shorter surgery, 2days shorter healing
CAF+CTG: OR for CompleteRC=4.0 vs CM+CAF
What articles can you use to support an opinion of mucogingival surgery > GTR for root coverage?
Al-Hamdan et al. 2003
Cairo et al. 2014
Would you consider performing a GTR for a recession defect instead of other recession coverage procedures?
NO!
Al-Hamdan et al. 2003 (Dr. Wang)
Meta-Analysis: GTR vs Conventional Mucogingival Surgery (CMGS) for root coverage
Recession reduction: CMGS > GTR
CRC: CMGS > GTR
KG gain: CMGS > GTR
