Abstract:

Introduction & Aim: Gingival recession is among one of the most common periodontal conditions affecting large number of patients. The most common etiological factors are periodontal diseases, mechanical forces like faulty tooth brushing, high frenum attachment, trauma from occlusion, iatrogenic factors like orthodontic tooth movement, poor restoration and some anatomic conditions. In this study a comparative evaluation of amniotic membrane, collagen membrane and connective tissue graft was done for the treatment of gingival recession. Materials & Methods: A total of 21 patients were enrolled in the study after obtaining informed consent. 7 patients were randomly allocated in three groups, amniotic membrane, collagen membrane and sub-epithelial connective tissue was respectively applied for the corrective surgery. The clinical outcomes were evaluated using plaque index, gingival index, recession depth, width and probing pocket depth with keratinized mucosa. Results: The results showed that amniotic membrane, collagen membrane can be used as an alternative material for correction of gingival recession. No significant difference was observed in the clinical parameters in all the three groups. All groups showed an overall improvement by reduction in the recession depth and width. A gain in clinical attachment level with keratinized gingiva was observed in all the groups. Conclusion: Amniotic and collagen membrane can be used as a good clinical alternative for correction of gingival recession. The clinical outcomes observed were at par (comparable) with the gold standard sub-epithelial connective tissue graft.
