Popis: Introduction: An amnion–chorion membrane is a placenta-derived tissue that has been introduced recently as a guided tissue regeneration membrane in dentistry. Numerous growth factors, proteins, and stem cell reserves in amnion could help in accelerated wound healing and regeneration, whereas chorion is a rich source of various collagen and non-collagen proteins. The present six-patient observational case series compares amnion and chorion allografts for recession coverage.Case Series: Six healthy adult patients presenting with 12 Miller Class I recession defects were treated surgically with a modified coronally advanced flap along with amniotic membrane (group A) or chorion (group B) for coverage of the recession defects following a split-mouth design. Clinical parameters measured at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months were width of keratinized gingiva (WKG), probing depth, recession height, clinical attachment level (CAL), and assessment of gingival biotype. Statistical analysis was done using paired and un...
