Treating human gingival recession defects with acellular dermis matrix and enamel matrix derivative using coronally advanced flaps.
This article documents the results of a study that used a coronally advanced flap (CAF) technique with an enamel matrix protein derivative (EMD) and acellular dermis matrix (ADM) to treat Miller Class I and II recession sites. Twenty sites with Miller Class I or II recession were selected randomly to be treated with CAF over EMD and ADM. Clinical measurements were made and recession depth, keratinized tissue width, and clinical attachment level were recorded at 3 months for each site. According to the 3-month results, there was significant gain in root coverage, gain in clinical attachment, and increases in width of keratinized gingiva for all recession sites treated with CAF over EMD and ADM.
