Mucogingival Problems
i. Pockets extending up to or beyond mucogingival junction ii. Recession causing denudation of root surfaces iii. High frenum and muscle attachments iv. Inadequate width of attached gingival.
Objectives
1. Widening the zone of attached gingiva 2. Coverage of denuded roots 3. Removal of aberrant frenum. 4. Creation of some vestibular depth when it is lacking. 5. As an adjunct to routine pocket elimination procedures.
Indications
1. Augmentation of the edentulous ridge. 2. Prevention of ridge collapse associated with tooth extraction. 3. Crown-lengthening. 4. Loss of interdental papilla which presents as esthetic/or phonetic defect.

Connective Tissue Technique Advantages of this technique include: a. Donor site—Healing by primary intention is achieved because the donor material can be obtained from connective tissue that is present beneath the palatal flap. b. Color matching is better.
Jаffaя яaza Syзd Page 13
Combination Techniques It can be performed as follows: Remove a strip of tissue about 3 to 4 mm thick from the palate, place it between two wet tongue depressors, and slice it longitudinally with a sharp BP blade. Use a superficial portion that contains epithelium and connective tissue. And the deeper portion that only consists of connective tissue.

Healing Of The Graft I. Plasmatic Circulation Stage (2-3 Days): Direct joining of capillaries between the graft and the recipient bed is seen and capillaries of the recipient bed invade the graft. Ii. Capillary Circulation Stage (4-5 Days): Capillaries start functional circulation again. The epithelium at this stage is almost desquamated and sparse. Iii. Organization Stage (10-14 Days): Organization is completed by growth of fibroblasts in the graft and in the recipient bed. The network of capillaries become dense. Regeneration of epithelium becomes active to complete the epithelialization (wound healing is by secondary intention)

Apically-Displaced Flap Pocket elimination widening the zone of attached gingival. can be a full thickness (or) split thickness flap
Procedure
Step I : Internal bevel incision 0.5-1 mm from the crest of the marginal gingiva is given. Step II : Crevicular incision and interdental incisions are placed. Step III : Vertical incisions extending beyond the mucogingival junction are made so that the flap can be displaced easily. Reflect the flap depending on the purpose (split thickness or full thickness). Step IV : Debride the area and place the flap apical to its original position and suture.

Vestibular Extension Operation For the widening of attached non-keratinizing tissue. two vertical incisions from the junction of the marginal and attached gingiva to approximately 12 mm from the alveolar margin into the vestibule. The vertical incisions are joined by horizontal incision. A mucosal flap is elevated exposing the periosteum on the bone. The periosteum is separated from the bone, starting from the line of attachment of the mucosal flap. The periosteum including muscle attachments is transported to bone and is sutured to the inner surface of the periosteum.

Root Coverage
Advantages for root coverage procedures i. Reduces root sensitivity. ii. Improves esthetics. iii. Manage the defects resulting from root caries removal and/or cervical abrasions. iv. Manage mucogingival defect which fail to respond to altering abusive tooth-brushing techniques and/ or plaque removal.

Miller’s Classification (1985) Class I: Marginal tissue recession that does not extend to the mucogingival junction. There is no loss of bone or soft tissue in the interdental area. This type of recession can be narrow or wide Class II : Marginal tissue recession that extends to or beyond the mucogingival junction. There is no loss of bone and soft tissue in the interdental area. This type of recession may be wide or narrow. Class III : Marginal tissue recession that extends to or beyond the mucogingival junction. In addition, there is bone and/or soft tissue loss interdentally or tooth may be malposed. Class IV : Marginal tissue recession extends to or beyond the mucogingival junction. With severe bone and soft tissue loss interdentally and/or severe tooth malposition.

Procedures For Root Coverage 1. Conventional procedures. 2. Regenerative procedures.
Conventional procedures Depending on the width of the attached gingiva, i.e. if adequate width is present at the donor site the following procedures can be selected:
a. Laterally (horizontally) displaced flap. b. Double-papilla flap. c. Coronally-positioned flap
If the donor site is associated with inadequate width: i. Free soft tissue autograft. ii. Subepithelial connective tissue grafts are available
Regenerative procedures: Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) has been proposed. Pedicle autografts:
Jаffaя яaza Syзd Page 26
Laterally (Horizontally) displaced flap Advantages a. One surgical site b. Good vascularity of the pedicle flap. c. Ability to cover isolated, denuded roots that have adequate donor tissue laterally. Disadvantages a. Limited by the amount of adjacent keratinized attached gingiva. b. Possibility of recession at the donor site. c. Dehiscence or fenestration at the donor site. d. Limited to one or two teeth with gingival recession. Indications: a. For covering the isolated denuded root. b. When there is sufficient width of interdental papilla in the adjacent teeth. c. Sufficient vestibular depth. Contraindications: a. Presence of deep interproximal pockets. b. Excessive root prominence. c. Deep or extensive root abrasion or erosion. d. Significant loss of interproximal bone height.

Double papilla flap Indications: 1. When the interproximal papillae adjacent to the mucogingival problem are sufficiently wide. 2. When the attached gingiva on an approximating tooth is insufficient to allow for a Lateral Pedicle Flap. 3. When periodontal pockets are not present. Advantages: 1. The risk of loss of alveolar bone is minimized because the interdental bone is more resistant to loss than is radicular bone. 2. The papillae usually supply a greater width of attached gingiva than from the radicular surface of a tooth. 3. The clinical predictability of this procedure is fairly good. Disadvantage: Technique sensitive—Having to join together the small flap in such a way so that they act as a single flap

Coronally-repositioned flap Indications: • Esthetic coverage of exposed roots. • For tooth sensitivity owing to gingival recession. Advantages: • Treatment of multiple areas of root exposure. • No need for involvement of adjacent teeth. • High degree of success. • Even if the procedure does not work, it does not increase the existing problem. Disadvantage: There is a need for two surgical procedures if the zone of keratinized gingiva is inadequate

First Technique Step 1 : Make two apically-divergent vertical releasing incisions Step 2 : A split thickness flap is prepared on coronal side and full thickness flap is prepared apical to recession Step 3 : Once the flap is reflected the root surfaces are debrided thoroughly. Some authors have suggested the use of citric acid with a pH 1.0 for conditioning the root surface. Step 4 : At the base of the inner surface of the flap, approximately 3 mm apical to the bone dehiscense, a horizontal incision is made through the periosteum, followed by a blunt dissection into the lining mucosa to release muscle tension. Now the mucosal graft can be easily positioned coronally at the level of cementoenamel junction. Step 5 : interrupted sutures and additional sling sutures can be placed to maintain the flap in place. Step 6 : Periodontal dressing is placed to protect the wound during initial healing.
Jаffaя яaza Syзd Page 34
Second Technique (Semilunar flap) Indication: Small localized area Advantages: • No vestibular shortening, as occurs with the coronallypositioned flap. • No esthetic compromise of interproximal papillae. • No need for sutures. Disadvantages: • Inability to treat large areas of gingival recession. • The need for a free gingival graft if there is an underlying dehiscence or fenestration.

Subepithelial Connective Tissue Graft Indications: • Where esthetics is of prime concern • For covering multiple denuded roots • In the absence of sufficient width of attached gingiva in the adjacent areas. Advantages: • High degree of cosmetic enhancement • Incurs no additional cost for autogenous donor tissue • One step procedure • Minimal palatal trauma • Increased graft vascularity. Disadvantages: • High degree of technical skills required. • Complicated suturing

Operations For Removal Of Frena “A frenum is a fold of mucous membrane usually with enclosed muscle fibers, that attaches the lips and cheeks to the alveolar mucosa and/or gingiva and underlying periosteum.”
Indications
To prevent:
1. The accumulation of irritants.
2. The deflection of the wall of periodontal pocket which may aggravate its severity.
3. Its interference with post-treatment healing.
4. Pocket formation.
5. Injury while brushing
