Journal ArticleDOI

Coronally Advanced Flap Procedure for Root Coverage. Is Flap Thickness a Relevant Predictor to Achieve Root Coverage? A 19-Case Series

TL;DR: The results of this study indicate that there is a direct relation between flap thickness and recession reduction (P <0.0001), and flap thickness >0.8 mm was associated with 100% of root coverage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of cigarette smoking on periodontal healing following GTR in infrabony defects. A preliminary retrospective study.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of cigarette smoking on the healing response following guided tissue regeneration (GTR) in deep infrabony defects was examined, and it was concluded that smoking is associated with a reduced healing response after GTR treatment, and may be responsible, at least in part, for the observed results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Periodontal regeneration of human intrabony defects. IV. Determinants of healing response.

TL;DR: Control of the identified predictor variables might improve the extent and predictability of guided tissue regeneration in the treatment of deep intrabony defects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Periodontal regeneration of human infrabony defects (V). Effect of oral hygiene on long-term stability.

TL;DR: It was concluded that stability of gained clinical attachment was dependent upon stringent oral hygiene, and GTR sites in patients receiving only sporadic care had a 50-fold increase in risk of PAL loss between 1 and 4 years with respect to patients undergoing regular recall.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence-based Mucogingival Therapy. Part 2: Ordinary and Individual Patient Data Meta-Analyses of Surgical Treatment of Recession Using Complete Root Coverage as the Outcome Variable

TL;DR: Few studies reported individual patient data, but IPD published in the literature are still insufficient to provide a reliable guide for clinical decision making, and decisive steps should be taken to facilitate the publication of IPD, in electronic format, whenever a clinical study is published in a leading journal.
