“…In certain experiments, ADM has been shown to yield similar results to SCTG, but with less defect coverage, lower keratinized gingival widths, and lower clinical attachment levels (CAL) [9].…”

“…As such, for ADM, complete coverage by the flap is required to achieve optimal vascularization, while for SCTG, the site can be left partially covered [9,20]. A flap thickness of more than 0.8 mm and the suturing of the gingival margin at 2.5 mm coronal to the CEJ will increase root-coverage potential.…”

“…SCTG is recommended, especially for the thin gingival biotype (with a thickness of <1 mm) [26]. ADM can be used in the treatment of single or multiple GRs with a gingival thickness of more than 1 mm and may be suggested as an alternative to SCTG when there is minimal palatal donor tissue or when patients refuse additional surgery [9,22].…”

Objective: This study aims to evaluate periodontal clinical conditions after treatment for gingival recession (GR) using subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) and acellular dermal matrix (ADM). Methods:Ten patients with Miller's Class I and II recessions that had been treated with SCTG or ADM at the Periodontics Outpatient Department at Universitas Indonesia were selected for this study. The pre-operative data for GR, clinical attachment levels (CAL), and attached gingiva (AG) were retrieved from the patients' medical records. The patients were recalled and the post-operative data were recorded. Results:The application of SCTG and ADM yields significant changes to GR, CAL, and AG levels. A comparison of two groups at the post-operative assessment stage showed no statistically significant differences, in terms of GR, CAL, and AG.Conclusion: SCTG and ADM yield similar outcomes in the treatment of GR. As such, ADM may be suggested as an alternative to SCTG for root coverage.

J Korean Assoc Oral Maxillofac Surg 2019;45:369-373) This paper describes a patient with an insufficient vestibular depth for a removable partial denture who underwent vestibuloplasty with a free gingival graft using a titanium mesh in the anterior mandible. Free gingiva was harvested from the palatal mucosa, and a partial thickness flap was elevated at the recipient site. After minimal suturing for the graft, a titanium mesh was fixed over the graft. The mesh was removed four weeks after surgery. The patient obtained an adequate vestibular depth and keratinized gingiva eight weeks after surgery without any complications. In this case, an appropriate vestibular depth and keratinized gingiva were easily obtained by vestibuloplasty using a titanium mesh.
