What is Coronally positioned flap?
Coronally positioned flap will be initiated with two vertical incisions, extending from a mesial and distal linear angle at the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) and go beyond the mucogingival junction.
What is Vista technique?
Treatment of isolated or multiple gingival recessions with different surgical procedures depends on many factors such as defect size, presence or absence of keratinized tissue adjacent to the defect, and thickness of the gingiva which are related to the defect and/or patient.[2]
What is mean root coverage?
[2] Miller[10] defined complete root coverage as the location of soft tissue margin at the CEJ, presence of clinical attachment to the root, sulcus depth of 2 mm or less and absence of bleeding on probing.
What does Coronally mean?
1 : of, relating to, or being a corona. 2 : lying in the direction of the coronal suture. 3 : of or relating to the frontal plane that passes through the long axis of the body.
How do you do connective tissue grafts?
Connective-tissue grafts. This is the most common method used to treat root exposure. During the procedure, a flap of skin is cut at the roof of your mouth (palate) and tissue from under the flap, called subepithelial connective tissue, is removed and then stitched to the gum tissue surrounding the exposed root.
What is autogenous tissue?
Autogenous Graft Procedures Subepithelial Grafts are autogenous – which means your own tissue is utilized for the grafting procedure. A clear surgical retainer will be fabricated for you to wear for a few days following the procedure.
What are mucogingival problems?
Common mucogingival conditions are recession, absence or reduction of keratinized tissue, and prob- ing depths extending beyond the MGJ. Anatomical variations that may complicate the management of these conditions include tooth position, frenulum insertions and vestibular depth.
Where is the mucogingival junction located?
intraoral mucosa
A mucogingival junction is located on the intraoral mucosa. The mucosa found on the cheeks and base of the mouth are fragile and freely moveable.
What’s another name for coronal plane?
A coronal plane (also known as the frontal plane) is any vertical plane that divides the body into ventral and dorsal (belly and back) sections. It is one of the three main planes of the body used to describe the location of body parts in relation to each other axis.
What’s the other way to say transverse plane?
The transverse plane or axial plane (also called the horizontal plane or transaxial plane) is an imaginary plane that divides the body into superior and inferior parts. It is perpendicular to the coronal plane and sagittal plane.
