Acellular Dermal Matrix Graft for Lower Anterior Root Coverage

Description:
In this surgical video, Dr. Paul Petrungaro demonstrates the utilization of Acellular Dermal Matrix in the treatment of gingival labial recession of lower central incisors. Incision design and flap management, including concurrent frenectomy are shown and discussed in detail. In addition, root conditioning, dermis matrix stabilization and suturing are also demonstrated.

Questions & Comments

Dr. Petrungaro Observing the two months Post-op photo, the top of the frenum is still enjoying the same position, touching an horizontal line connecting the gingival levels/margins on #24,25 Comments: Frenectomy by itself in the first phase, could have created an excellent AESTHETICS and the procedure would have allowed to place the frenum in a better, desired position. I would imagin that further(more) relieving of frenum was restricted in this combined procedure because of a possibility of severing/hindering of blood supply to the graft-site. I still see a compromise(good or bad)in the final result, that there is a healthy, robust "scar tissue" hopefully attached to the periosteum. Comment: Disecting the attachment using surgical blade(not the laser), from periosteum to the full depth of the vestibule and suturing the entire cut ends of labial aspects of "frenum incision" may have eliminated this undesirable scarring. amgdds

Great video and technique Dr Petrungaro. Don't you consider that by cutting more muscle fibers of the frenum you would have avoided a reattachment of it? Did you ever consider to tunneling it? Great idea the using of PRP. Thank you for your great video

Alveolar Ridge Preservation and Reconstruction
Periodontal plastic surgery procedures designed to reconstruct deformed, partially edentulous residual ridges were introduced to the dental profession between 1971 and 1986. They have been revised and refined to their current state of development, where they now occupy a major place in the reconstructive armamentarium. Before these concepts were developed, it was generally believed that it was impossible to surgically reconstruct deformities in the partially edentulous ridge. Deformities were filled…
