The results of this in vitro study indicate that diluted EO displayed no detectable detrimental effects on human gingival and PDL fibroblasts, whereas diluted CHX reduced both cell migration and long-term survival. Both solutions retained their antimicrobial activity in lower concentrations.

Introduction: Gingival recession (GR) presents a major concern for patients, especially when associated with tooth sensitivity or esthetic concerns.
Case Presentation: This report describes a modified technique for the treatment of isolated, severe GR combining a full‐thickness/split‐thickness coronally positioned flap with a subepithelial connective tissue graft. After treatment of severe GR of the maxillary right and left canines (5 and 6 mm, respectively), there was almost complete coverage of both canines and an increase in keratinized gingiva.
Conclusion: A promising technique is presented, yielding 84% to 100% of defect coverage and gingival tissue enhancement on single teeth.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
